Olomouc Linguistics Colloquium - Olinco 2013

The Olomouc Linguistics Colloquium (Olinco) is to be a general linguistics conference held at least biannually at Palacký University Olomouc. It will cover synchronic or diachronic aspects of grammar, phonology, or semantics. Papers can treat language description, language acquisition, performance, translation, or language deficits. The topic of Olinco 2013 will be Language use and linguistic structure. We look forward to contributions which include and justify proposals for linguisitic structure, and at the same time relate these structures to some aspect of language use, such as information structure, phonetics, meaning, etc.

Featured invited speakers:

• Liliane Haegeman (University of Ghent) - The structure and left-periphery of adverbial clauses
• Geoffrey Leech (University of Lancaster) - The English noun phrase: aspects of its recent history
• Joseph Emonds (Palacký University) - Adjectival morphology and agreements in Indo-European languages
