The central objective of WSCLA is to bring together linguists who are engaged in research on the formal study of the Aboriginal languages of the Americas in order to exchange ideas across theories, language families, generations of scholars, and across the academic and non-academic communities who are involved in language maintenance and revitalization.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invited speakers:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Amy Rose Deal<br \/>\nAlana Johns<br \/>\nNicholas Welch<\/p>\n<p><strong>Invited student speaker:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\">Clarissa Forbes<\/p>\n<p>Abstracts are invited for papers in any area of formal linguistics (including phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, and pragmatics) within any theoretical framework.
