NACCL-12 welcomes papers on a wide variety of topics on Chinese Linguistics, including syntax, semantics, phonology, pragmatics, discourse analysis, socio-linguistics, psycholinguistics, historical linguistics, language acquisition and computational linguistics.

Abstracts may be written in English or Chinese and should be limited to only one page (with an additional page for data and references if necessary). Use 12 point Time New Roman font if the abstract is in English. Leave a margin of 1.25 inch on all four sides and justify on both left and right. Please send 5 copies of the camera-ready abstract to the Organizing Committee no later than November 15, 1999. One of the copies should have your name, e-mail (if any) and affiliation beneath the title, all of them centered; the other four copies should be anonymous. Attach a separate index card, with your name, address (both snail mail and e-mail), phone/fax number and affiliation on it. As we will be using the camera-ready abstract in the final conference program, we cannot accept abstracts sent by e-mail or fax.

Notification letters of acceptance will be sent out by February 1, 2000.

More information about this conference will gradually become available from our website (http://www-rohan.sdsu.edu/dept/chinese). E-mail inquiries can be directed to naccl12@mail.sdsu.edu.

All submissions and communications should be sent to:

We are looking forward to seeing you in San Diego and hosting the first NACCL of the new millennium!
