NACCL 33: North American Conference on Chinese Linguistics 33 Virtuall Chicago, IL, United States, June 24-25, 2021 Conference website https://lucian.uchicago.edu/blogs/lpl/NACCL33/ Submission link https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=naccl33 Call for Papers: NACCL 33 June 24-25, 2021, University of Chicago Submission deadline: March 15, 2021 The 33rd meeting of the North American Conference on Chinese Linguistics (NACCL -33) 第33屆北美漢語語言學會議 will be held virtually on June 24-25, 2021.NACCL- 33 invites abstracts in all subfields of Chinese linguistics, including but not limited to, phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, pragmatics, dialectology, historical linguistics, psycholinguistics, sociolinguistics, and corpus linguistics. Invited speakers include: * Yiya Chen (Leiden University) * Xuping Li (Zhejiang University) * Mingya Liu (Humboldt University) * Naomi Nagy (University of Toronto) * Haun Saussy (University of Chicago) * Rebecca Starr (National University of Singapore) We particularly encourage submissions that are relevant to our conference theme : "Variation and Change in Chinese Varieties around the Globe.” It is well known that China features a wealth of linguistic diversity. One of the main reasons for this level of variation is population movement, which is precipitated by natural disasters, imperial expansion, and general economic opportunities. Population movement is not restricted to be within China, however. The number and geographic distribution of Chinese-speaking diasporic communities are immense and their contact with local languages have resulted in unique developments that have, until recently, received relatively little attention. NACCL is an ideal venue to bring together scholars from around the world who are conducting research on Chinese varieties, to integrate multidisciplinary perspectives into Chinese linguistic research with diaspora communities and to discuss diaspora Chinese linguistics in its own right. The conference will be hosted on Whova, an events management platform that offers both mobile app and web versions. All presentations will consist of 20- minute pre-recorded talks, followed by a 10-minute live Q&A session. Timing accommodations will be made, where possible, for authors presenting remotely from other regions of the world.
