The Dutch Annual Linguistics Day is a joint initiative of the Dutch Linguistic Society (AVT), the Association for Applied Linguistics (Anéla) and the National Linguistics Research School (LOT). Traditionally, the DALD is a day on which we can see and speak with all our colleagues in the Netherlands and Flanders and inform each other about current research in (applied) linguistics.
This year the Dutch Annual Linguistics Day will be held on Friday 3 February 2023 at Utrecht University. Following two online editions in 2021 and 2022, this edition will be entirely in person again, at Drift 21 and Drift 25. We will organize a very varied program with lectures, coffee moments, the Language Gala, and a surprising keynote presentation. In this program, particular attention will be paid to the relationship between language and inclusion. As usual, the AVT/Anéla dissertation prize and the LOT popularization prize will be awarded at the end of the day, during the Language Gala.
SUBMIT ABSTRACT FOR LECTURE
If you are an AVT or Anéla member and if you wish to give a lecture at the Dutch Annual Linguistics Day, you can submit an up to 170 words abstract via the AVT website until Friday 16 December 2022. The lecture can last up to 20 minutes (with 5 minutes question time).
- If you are planning to present your lecture in English, you can indicate this with an English title and summary instead of a Dutch one.
- You are allowed to submit a maximum of 2 abstracts (1 as first author, 1 as co-author).
If you do not receive an online confirmation of your abstract submission, please contact Jenneke van der Wal (g.j.van.der.wal@hum.leidenuniv.nl). If there are more speakers than slots in the program, the most recently received abstracts will be included as ‘alternates’.
The program booklet (including abstracts) will appear on the AVT website by January and will be sent by email to all registered participants (at that time) and all AVT and Anéla members.
PUBLICATIONS
After the Dutch Annual Linguistics Day, AVT members can submit a written version of their presentation for Linguistics in the Netherlands, an internationally read and peer-reviewed series published by Benjamins. Linguistics in the Netherlands has a short publication process: the LIN volume will be published no longer than six months after completion of the review procedure. The majority of articles in LIN is open access thanks to Read&Publish deals, and two years after publication each volume is freely accessible via Benjamins’ website.
Anéla members can submit a written version of their presentation for The Dutch Journal of Applied Linguistics (DuJAL, recently fully open access).
