ELEVENTH INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
ON AUSTRONESIAN LINGUISTICS
Aussois, 22-26 June 2009
http://www.vjf.cnrs.fr/11ical
The Organising Committee of 11·ICAL is happy to present today as many as
140 different presentations, all dealing with various aspects of language or
linguistics among Austronesian languages.
The present volume contains the abstracts of all these presentations,
ranked by alphabetical order of their first author. Many of the
presentations will be distributed into seven panels. While the titles and
programmes of these panels appear in the last section of the book (p.131),
the abstracts of individual papers are to be found in the main section. The
three keynote presentations form a separate section, at the beginning of
this volume.
We wish all the participants a pleasant and fruitful conference.
The 11·ICAL Organising Committee
(Laurent Sagart, Isabelle Bril, Alexandre François)
