3-3-45 (2024-07-02) CfP Speech Prosody 2024, Leiden, The Netherlands
  

Dear Speech Prosody SIG members,

We are delighted to announce that Speech Prosody 2024 will be held in Leiden, The Netherlands (02–05 July 2024). The conference aims to showcase the facets of prosodic variation and their role in the production, comprehension, and acquisition of speech in order to obtain a better understanding of the structure and function of prosody. The theme includes four subthemes:

a. Prosody through the lifespan

b. Typology and cross-linguistic variation

c. Individual and social variation

d. Contact-induced variation

The conference will include both thematic sessions, based on the above subthemes, and non-thematic sessions. We also invite proposals for special sessions, workshops, and tutorials.

 

We welcome submissions on any aspect of prosody in language. Contributions relating to the conference themes, and particularly, submissions by junior researchers, on under-studied languages, and/or with interdisciplinary research methods, are strongly encouraged.

 

Topics include, but are not limited to:

Phonology and phonetics of prosody

Prosody and its interfaces with morphology, syntax, and semantics

Prosody and pragmatics

Rhythm and timing

Tone and intonation

Interaction between segmental and suprasegmental features
