A huge thank you to all the speakers, audience members and volunteers who came from near and far to make yesterday’s 2015 Symposium such a fabulous event! We were delighted to have such a diverse program of topics (from cricket commentary and long consonant clusters, to a comparative dictionary and copular verbs in ESL grammars) involving a range of languages (from Bernese German to Blackfoot, and Standard Spoken Tamil to Urban Jordanian Arabic) – to mention but a few… As the program was subject to a few last-minute twists and turns, here is the full and final version of the day’s proceedings.

P.S. The 2016 Symposium will be the fifth annual event which will coincide with the 25th anniversary of the LLD Department. Watch this space…!!
