Dutch Annual Linguistics Day
The AVT, Anéla, and LOT annually organise the Dutch Annual Linguistics Day, where all linguists in the Netherlands meet up.
Dutch Annual Linguistics Day 2025
The Dutch Annual Linguistics Day is a joint initiative of the Association for General Linguistics (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 to all our colleagues in the Netherlands and Flanders and on which we inform each other about current research in (applied) linguistics.
The next Dutch Annual Linguistics Day will be held on Friday 31 January 2025. This edition will be at Utrecht University (Please note: Due to the renovation of the buildings at Drift, this year’s edition will be at Science Park!). We will organize a very varied program with lectures, coffee moments, the Language Gala, and keynote by Malvina Nissim. 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.
If you are an AVT or Anéla member and if you wish to give a presentation at the Dutch Annual Linguistics Day, you can submit an up to 170 words abstract via this form till Sunday 1 December 2024. The presentation can last up to 20 minutes (with 5 minutes question time).
- If you want to present 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 Alex Reuneker (a.reuneker@hum.leidenuniv.nl). If there are more speakers than slots in the program, the most recently received abstracts will be included as 'alternates'.
Location
In 2025, the Dutch Annual Linguistics Day will take place at a different location than usual, namely the Marinus Ruppert building at the Utrecht Science Park. The bus stops almost in front of the door (Heidelberglaan stop) and P+R Utrecht Science Park is a 12-minute walk from the location. The main entrance is on the Leuvenlaan.
