The P-workshop (The Phonetics/Phonology Workshop)

In semester 2 of 2010-2011, the Phonetics/Phonology Workshop meets on Thursday at 1:00, in room 1.17 (the Angus McIntosh Room) of the Dugald Stewart Building.

The programme consists of talks, seminars and discussions on subjects relating to phonetics, phonology and speech technology.

Talks marked with an asterisk are likely to be of interest to P-workshop members, but are not hosted by the P-workshop itself.
