Austronesian Formal Linguistics Association Annual Conference 2008

University of Sydney

June 30, 2008 – July 2, 2008


AFLA is an organisation which promotes the study of Austronesian languages from a formal perspective. It serves as a forum for research couched in a variety of formal approaches. From its initial meeting in 1994, each meeting has encouraged the formal study of Austronesian languages, especially work by speaker-linguists and by junior scholars. The 15th annual meeting of AFLA will be the first meeting to be held in Australia.

Talks will be given on many aspects of formal linguistics (e.g. language acquisition, morphology, phonology, phonetics, semantics, syntax) of Austronesian languages.
