After the success of our first workshop Polar Question Meaning[s] Across Languages, we are launching a second POQAL meeting, this time focusing on form. How are polar questions expressed in syntax, morphology, intonation? How do components of the grammar of each language constrain and determine these ways, e.g. in the inventory of functional categories, the expression of negation, focus, polarity, intonational characteristics, pragmatic division of labor among forms? How do f

We invite contributions to a special issue of the Nordic Journal of African Studies, dedicated to auxiliary constructions in Bantu languages. Despite their significance in this verb-centered family, auxiliaries have received relatively little in-depth, systematic attention in the general Bantu literature, especially when compared to the complex morphology of the simplex verbal word.
We welcome submissions addressing the plethora of formal and functional aspects of Bantu auxi

On Saturday, September 27, 2025, following the main AMP session held on September 25-26, 2025, there will be a special session on "Deep Phonology: Doing phonology with deep learning" held on the UC Berkeley campus.
Phonology has been modeled using rules, constraints, finite state machines, exemplars, and many other approaches. Recent advances in deep learning have prompted researchers to explore how deep neural architectures (e.g., seq2seq models, transformers, RNNs, LSTMs, VAEs, GANs) can sh
The dialect of Lesbos is one of the major dialects still spoken in Greece. It belongs to the group of 螡orthern Greek Dialects, featuring, among other things, two phonological traits missing from the varieties of the south: high-vowel deletion and mid-vowel raising in unstressed position. The dialect of Lesbos displays an interesting vocabulary and a number of intriguing phenomena that reveal aspects of the diachronic evolution of Greek and contact with Turkish and Italo-Romance.
