Workshop on Prosodic Variation (ProVar)
Lisbon, Portugal, 9 July 2015
http://labfon.letras.ulisboa.pt/InAPoP/ProVar/
Call for papers
Abstract deadline: 31 May 2015
ProVar - Workshop on Prosodic Variation - is the 2nd Workshop of the Interactive Atlas of the Prosody of Portuguese Project (InAPoP). We welcome contributions from all areas of research on prosodic variation, such as prosodic phrasing, intonation, and rhythm, in any language(s) or language varieties. The workshop aims to provide a forum for discussion of prosodic variation in language, by bringing together the InAPoP team and all those interested on Prosody in language, seeking to understand the properties of prosodic systems and the extent to which they vary across and within languages.
ProVar–Workshop on Prosodic Variation welcomes the submission of abstracts on any area of prosodic variation (e.g., prosodic phrasing, tone, intonation, stress, rhythm) and on any language(s) or language varieties. Abstracts on any topic related to the study of prosodic variation, from a phonetics and/or phonology point of view, as well as from a language processing or interface perspective can be submitted for either oral communication or poster format.
Submissions should be sent electronically in PDF format, through the submission button at the Workshop website. Abstracts may be submitted either for a 'talk/poster', or as a 'poster only'.
Notifications regarding acceptance/rejection will be made by June 8, 2015.
Abstract Guidelines:
Abstracts should be written in English and not exceed 500 words. References, examples and/or figures can optionally be included in a second page. Please use the following format: Font Times New Roman, 12pt; single line spacing single; Margins 2,5cm. The first line of the abstract should contain the title of the paper in boldface. A blank line should be left between the title lines and the abstract text. Please name your abstract as ProVar_TITLE.

Workshop on Geminate Consonants Across the World (GemCon)
Satellite meeting of the 18th International Congress of Phonetic Sciences (ICPhS 2015)
Glasgow, Scotland, 12 August 2015
http://pj.ninjal.ac.jp/phonology/IntlConference/gemcon_2015/010home_1/
Geminate consonants are found in many languages around the world including, but not restricted to, Arabic, Bengali, Berber, Finnish, Italian, Japanese, Saami, and Swiss German. Yet, their phonetic manifestation and phonological nature are not fully understood, much less their cross‐linguistic similarities and differences. For example, some languages shorten pre‐geminate vowels, whereas other languages lengthen pre‐geminate vowels. The aim of this workshop is to bring together scholars interested in geminate consonants to discuss a singleton/geminate contrast from multiple perspectives—phonetic, phonological, morphological and typological. The workshop will consist of two parts: an oral session featuring invited talks and a poster session for which abstracts are solicited from scholars around the world.
For further information about abstract submission, registration etc., please visit the workshop website: http://pj.ninjal.ac.jp/phonology/IntlConference/gemcom_2015/010home_1/

Workshop on Variation in Phonology
Budapest, Hungary, 13 January 2016
http://seas3.elte.hu/ocp13/variation.html
Call for papers
Abstract deadline: 16 September 2015
We are pleased to announce that the Thirteenth Old World Conference in Phonology will be organized in Budapest from 14 to 16 January 2016. The speakers invited to the conference are Outi Bat-El (Tel Aviv University), Eugeniusz Cyran (John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin), and Bruce Hayes (University of California Los Angeles).
The conference is preceded by a one-day workshop on variation in phonology on 13 January 2016. Phonological variation is non-identical phonological behaviour under identical conditions. It occurs when one and the same grammatical/semantic function has more than one exponent, and the choice between them is conditioned by dialectal/idiolectal factors (such as region, style, social status, etc.) and not by the morpho-phonological or syntactic environment. This type of variation manifests itself in the ''vacillation'' of forms in one and the same cell of the same paradigm (e.g. English learn+PAST: learned/learnt; Hungarian fürd- 'bathe'+INF: fyrød-ni/fyrd-ɛni). Phonological variation of the ''lexical''type occurs when the comparable phonological properties of forms in same (functionally/grammatically/morphosyntactically identified) cell of the paradigms of different lexical items are different although the relevant phonological/syntactic conditioning factors are the same (e.g. English keep+PAST / seep+PAST: kept/seeped; Hungarian víz 'water' +INE / sír 'grave' +INE: viːz-bɛn/ʃiːr-bɑn). The two types of variation often occur together, e.g. Hungarian verb stems derived from the nouns matek 'maths', koncert 'concert, roller 'scooter': mɑtɛk-oz-(ik) / *mɑtɛk-ɛz-(ik), *konʦɛrt-oz-(ik) / konʦɛrt-ɛz-(ik), rolːɛr-oz-(ik) / rolːɛr-ɛz-(ik).
We invite abstracts for both the workshop (only oral presentations) and the conference (both oral and poster presentations). For further details please consult http://seas3.elte.hu/ocp/abstracts.html
The deadline for submitting abstracts is 9am GMT, 16 September 2015. Any changes will be posted at http://seas3.elte.hu/ocp/times.html
