WILA8: Call for Papers - extended deadline

The Eighth Annual Workshop on Immigrant Languages in the Americas (WILA 8) will be hosted at the University of Copenhagen from October 12 to Saturday, October 14, 2017. 

The Workshop on Immigrant Languages in the Americas, now in its eighth year, focuses on both formal and sociolinguistic approaches to language context situations, especially in heritage language communities (naturally acquired languages spoken in a community where it is not the majority variety). The workshop covers topics from anthropological linguistics, general linguistics, historical linguistics, language documentation and sociolinguistics.

Local organizers: the project team of Danish Voices - Karoline Kühl, Jan Heegård Petersen, Gert Foget Hansen and Frans Gregersen.

A Call for Papers is issued. The deadline for submission is extended to June 9, 2017
