Call For Papers

The special theme of TAI 2027, “Universality and Specificity of Tone and Intonation Systems,” addresses a central question in prosodic research: Which aspects of tone and intonation are shared across languages, and which are shaped by language-specific, cultural, social, or communicative factors? We invite submissions that explore phonetic, phonological, psycholinguistic, neurolinguistic, computational, and sociolinguistic aspects of tone and intonation from cross-linguistic and interdisciplinary perspectives. We particularly encourage contributions that investigate both universal tendencies and language-specific realizations in tone and intonation systems.
