SEA Workshop

Language Contact and Historical Relationships of Languages in Southeast Asia

(HRESAL 2)

During COVID, the Institute of Linguistics at National Tsing Hua University hosted an online conference on Historical Relationships of East and Southeast Asian Languages (HRESAL 2022) (via GoogleMeet) on September 3-4, 2022. The online conference was very successful; however, participants hoped that there would be an opportunity for scholars to meet in person to discuss issues related to historical relationships of languages in East and Southeast Asia.

As the host institute of SEALS 33, the Institute of Linguistics at National Tsing Hua University has decided to host a post-SEALS 33 Workshop on Southeast Asian Linguistics (or HRESAL 2): Language Contact and Historical Relationships of Languages in Southeast Asia in our home institution on June 18, 2024. We hope that hosting SEALS 33 and the post-conference SEA Workshop can enhance scholarly exchange and collaboration between scholars and academic institutions in Taiwan with scholars and academic institutions from other countries.
