CALL FOR PAPERS

We are thrilled to announce that this year is the society's silver anniversary! The current executive committee would like to express its congratulations and gratitude to everyone who has worked over the past 25 years to make LSHK such a success. There will be a special banquet at this year's Annual Research Forum to celebrate this historic occasion. Details of the banquet will be announced later.

LSHK members are cordially invited to attend and to present papers at the 2011 Annual Research Forum of the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong (LSHK-ARF 2011), which will be hosted by the City University of Hong Kong, on December 3, 2011 (Saturday).

As is customary ARF practice, there will be parallel sessions, and papers related to any area of linguistics are welcome. Every paper will be allotted 20 minutes for oral presentation and 10 minutes for discussion.

Please note that *all* presenters 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.

To mark the 25th anniversary of the Linguistic Society of Hong Kong, a special session which discusses the future development of linguistics in Hong Kong will be included in the forum this year. Members are welcome to submit papers related to this theme. Moreover, members who would like to propose a discussion session based on a particular theme or a theme-based parallel session are also welcome to send a proposal (maximum two pages) to the LSHK Executive Committee, specifying the theme and the format of the session and target participants.
