The Department of Linguistics and English Language at The University of Manchester will host SULA 6 from 5-7 May, 2011. The goal of the conference is to bring together researchers working on languages or dialects which do not have an established tradition of work in formal semantics. We especially encourage abstract submissions from those whose work involves primary fieldwork or experimentation as well as analysis. We strongly encourage the participation of graduate students.
