3-2-3(2020-08-16) 1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI), Sonderborg, Denmark

*****************
CALL FOR PAPERS
*****************

1st International Conference on Tone and Intonation (TAI)

'Tone and Intonation in a globalized, digital world'

Sonderborg, Denmark

16-20 August 2020

The 1st edition of the Tone-and-Intonation (TAI) conference series is proudly hosted by the Centre of Industrial Electronics (CIE) at the University of Southern Denmark. Being a merger of the two former conference series TAL (Tonal Aspects of Languages) and TIE (Tone and Intonation in Europe), TAI 2020 welcomes contributions on phonetic and phonological analyses of prosody including (but not limited to) topics related to the production and perception of prosody and rhythm, the semantics and pragmatics of prosody, the acquisition and teaching of prosody in L1 and L2, and cross-linguistic comparisons of prosody.  In addition, in TAI 2020 a number of sessions will be dedicated to the conference theme of globalization and digitization. In this context, we also encourage researchers of neighboring disciplines to submit papers related to tone and intonation to the conference.

Globalization poses increasing challenges to both societies and individuals in terms of language contact and language acquisition. Digitization opens up new ways of human-human and human-machine interaction. In both contexts, tone and intonation are special linguistic, technical and didactic hurdles. Their better understanding not only has the potential for deeper insights into the nature of speech communication but can also decisively shape the communication of tomorrow.

VENUE

Centre of Industrial Electronics (CIE) at the University of Southern Denmark (SDU) on science campus Alsion, Sonderborg, Denmark (https://www.sdu.dk/en/om_sdu/institutter_centre/centre+for+industrial+elektronics).
