[Ura-list] Conference Syntax of Uralic Languages 4

[Ksenia Shagal]

*Syntax of Uralic Languages (SOUL-4) – First Call*

The 4th conference Syntax of Uralic Languages (SOUL-4), which was postponed
because of the pandemic, will take place at the Institute of Linguistic
Studies, *St. Petersburg* on *7–8 June 2022*. We hope that the situation
with the pandemic will get better and the borders will be open, so we plan
SOUL-4 as an offline conference. However, the option of the online
participation will be available in any case.

We invite contributions that address issues in synchronic or diachronic
syntax in one or several Uralic languages. The contributions may introduce
new linguistic material or present a theoretical analysis of the existing
data. We welcome papers concerned with any topic in Uralic syntax, in
particular:
- the structure of nominal phrases
- the structure of verbal phrases and predication
- differential object marking
- word order and its interaction with information structure
- subordination
- language contact and its influence on the syntactic structure of the
Uralic languages
- syntactic isoglosses in the Uralic family
- the interface of syntax and semantics/pragmatics/prosody
- the syntax of particles.

Each talk will be 20 minutes long plus a 10-minute discussion.
