Call for papers

The Décembrettes, an international conference on morphology organized by the research group CLLE-ERSS (CNRS & Université de Toulouse), takes place every two years at the end of the first week of December. It brings together students and researchers in morphology from around the world. Open to all topics involving the morphology of the languages of the world and to all theoretical approaches, the Décembrettes provide a high level scientific forum to present results and discuss data and analysis in a collegial atmosphere. The talks and posters presented at the conference undergo a rigorous and fully transparent selection process.

The 7th Décembrettes will be held in Toulouse on December 2-3, 2010. In addition to two invited talks, the conference will include selected talks and posters. The presentations can be given in English or French.
