Call for Papers:
Formal Approaches to South Asian Languages 16 (FASAL 16) will be hosted by the
Linguistics Program at the University of South Carolina.
FASAL reaches out to all researchers that do high-quality linguistic study of
any South Asian language adopting a wide range of methodologies. We welcome
submissions on under-researched and/or endangered South Asian languages in
areas including, but not limited to phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax,
semantics, pragmatics, computational linguistics, psycholinguistics, and
historical linguistics. We particularly encourage submissions from researchers
located in South Asia.
In the interest of including as many colleagues from around the world as
possible, this year FASAL will have both an in-person component on April 10-11
, 2026 at the USC campus in Columbia, SC and a fully online component on April
18, 2026. Researchers submitting abstracts should indicate for which
component(s) they are would like to be considered.
Mini-workshop:
This year FASAL will feature a special mini-workshop focused on the prosody-
syntax interface. Recent work both within and outside South Asian languages
has productively addressed interface phenomena such as focus and phrasal
prominence, question intonation, ellipsis, and word order. We welcome research
advancing these or any other topics of relevance to prosody-syntax
connections in any South Asian language.
