CALL FOR PAPERS

LSHK members are cordially invited to attend and to present papers at the 2009 Annual Research Forum of the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong (LSHK-ARF 2009), which will be hosted by the Hong Kong Institute of Education, on December 12, 2009 (Saturday).

This year, we are honored that Prof. Chris Kennedy, Chair of Department of Linguistics at Chicago University, will give us a keynote speech.

As is customary ARF practice, there will be multiple parallel sessions and papers related to any areas of linguistics are strongly encouraged. Each paper will be allotted 20 minutes for oral presentation and 10 minutes for discussion. Poster presentations may also be considered and there may be poster sessions during the one-day ARF this year.

Please note that all ARF (oral or poster) presenters (or at least one of them in a co-authored paper) have to be an LSHK member. If you are not yet a member, please apply for the LSHK membership by filling in the application form which can be downloaded from www.lshk.org.

Each member is maximally entitled to one single-author presentation and one joint presentation. Each submission should be an abstract of no more than 400 words in English or 800 characters in Chinese.

ARF abstract submissions and registration will be done online at http://lshk.org/arf2009/registration.php. Email and/or paper abstract submissions will NOT be accepted.

For inquiries, please contact us by email at lshk.arf@gmail.com.
