Themes and submissions
Fonetik 2024 welcomes submissions on any aspect of phonetics and speech science. Scientific areas include, but are not limited to: phonetics, phonology, linguistics, computational linguistics, speech and language pathology, voice research, music and singing, conversation analysis, psychology, cognitive science, speech and language technology, signal processing, machine learning... Submissions by junior researchers, bachelor or master students, and/or researchers that have not yet been introduced to the Fonetik meeting are strongly encouraged!
Seminar to celebrate Björn Lingblom's 90th birthday
As this iteration of the conference coincides with the 90th birthday of Professor emeritus Björn Lindblom, we will also organize a special afternoon seminar to celebrate! Björn is the former head of the Stockholm University Department of Linguistics and founder of the Phonetics Laboratory. He has served as tutor, colleague, advisor, and friend to generations of phonetics students. We encourage presenters to submit contributions toward this special seminar on themes pertinent to central themes of Björn’s research. These topics include speech production, coarticulation, phonological development, evolution of speech, phonetic systems, and phonological universals – and many others. These contributions will be included as part of the general conference proceedings.
Language for presentation
The contributions at Fonetik deal with Swedish, Nordic and other languages, and the meeting is often visited by researchers from neighbouring countries and occasionally by more long-distance participants. The language for presentations and plenary discussions has been English since the mid-10s, which provides better opportunities for both visitors and doctoral students from other language environments to participate.
Social events
Conference participants are invited to a reception on Monday evening, June 3rd, at the conference site, and to a dinner on Tuesday evening, close to the campus area.
Important dates
Preliminary registration: 9th February-15th March 2024<https://su.powerinit.com/Data/Event/EventTemplates/2602/?EventId=2937>
Paper Submission Deadline: 19th May 2024
Registration open: 16th March-19th May 2024
Dear all,
The organisers are pleased to announce that next year’s edition of the annual phonetics conference Fonetik 2024 will take place at Stockholm University. We kindly ask you to mark the dates June 3-5 2024 in your calendars. There will be more substantial information and important dates in due time.
However, we can already now announce that there will also be a Special seminar to commemorate Björn Lindblom’s 90th birthday in connection with Fonetik 2024, and that this event will be organised by Axel Ekström at KTH. The call for this event reads like this:
Special seminar to commemorate Björn Lindblom’s 90th birthday
The 35th iteration of the conference is organized at Stockholm University and coincides with the 90th birthday of Professor emeritus Björn Lindblom. Therefore, in addition to the traditional two-day lunch-to-lunch meeting, we will also be organizing a special afternoon seminar to celebrate.
Björn is the former head of the SU Department of Linguistics and founder of the Stockholm University Phonetics Laboratory. He has served as tutor, colleague, advisor, and friend to generations of phonetics students.
We encourage presenters to submit contributions toward this special seminar on themes pertinent to central themes of Björn’s research. These topics include speech production, coarticulation, phonological development, evolution of speech, phonetic systems, and phonological universals – and many others. These contributions will be included as part of the general conference proceedings.

Dear colleague,
On 12-13 October 2023, a new NNL2P conference will take place in Trondheim, Norway. You are most welcome to participate!
The NNL2P Conference brings together researchers and teachers in second and foreign language pronunciation. The Nordic Network for L2 Pronunciation (NNL2P) takes a special interest in studies of L2 pronunciation specific to Nordic languages as well as general L2 research topics exemplified with Nordic language materials. We also welcome other contributions that are relevant to the field.
The on-site, in-person conference provides an opportunity to meet other researchers and teachers in an informal setting. We particularly welcome submissions from early researchers. To stimulate discussion, we encourage poster presentations, but it is also possible to indicate a preference for oral presentation.
Invited speakers:
- Magdalena Wrembel (Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznan, Poland)
From a multilingual perspective: Cross-linguistic influence in the acquisition of L3 phonetics and phonology
- Ari Huhta (University of Jyväskylä, Finland)
Fluency and pronunciation in language assessment: How do language testers define them and what do raters pay attention to?
Deadline for abstract submission: 15 August 2023
Please refer to the conference website<https://www.ntnu.edu/isl/nnl2p> for more information.
We hope to see you in Trondheim!
Jacques Koreman and co-organizers
P.S. Please feel free to pass this e-mail on to your direct colleagues if they are not on the NNL2P mailing list. But please do not distribute it to a wider audience to prevent double postings/spam.

Kære fonetikere i Norden!
Jeg tillader mig på opfordring fra en kollega at sende information til jer om et kursus i retslingvistik (forensic linguistics) som jeg afholder for tredje gang i år på Copenhagen Summer University (en enhed under Københavns Universitet som udbyder korte efteruddannelseskurser). I år afholdes kurset d. 14.-16. august, og deltagelse koster 14.500 danske kroner.
Undervisningssproget er dansk, men jeg tilpasser naturligvis mit danske så det er til at følge med for nordiske kolleger. Sidste år deltog en gruppe svenske kolleger som gerne vil udbyde retslingvistik på deres hjemuniversitet, og det var en stor fornøjelse at have dem med! Derudover er der typisk deltagere fra dansk politi og lignende myndigheder.
Man kan læse mere om kurset her: https://efteruddannelse.ku.dk/sprog-og-omraadestudier/retslingvistik---naar…
Hvis I har nogen spørgsmål, må I endelig skrive til mig!
De bedste hilsner

Hej!
Jag skriver just nu min C-uppsats i nordiska språk vid Uppsala universitet. Uppsatsen handlar om tonhöjdsförändringar vid dialektimitation, det vill säga hur den genomsnittliga grundtonsfrekvensen förändras när informanter härmar olika svenska dialekter. Mitt resultat visar att det finns en tydlig trend bland informanterna att, för vissa dialekter, höja rösten mycket och för andra endast höja rösten litet eller till och med sänka den. För min diskussion har jag varit på jakt efter information om hur det ser ut i de faktiska dialekterna för att kunna avgöra om det rör sig om imitation av ett verkligt fenomen eller endast stereotyper. Jag har fått höra av bland andra Anders Eriksson att Claes-Christian Elert skall ha skrivit om grundton i svenska dialekter men har inte kunnat hitta någon utgiven information om detta. Det var även Anders som hänvisade mig till den här mejlinglistan. Min fråga är därför om någon av er känner till någon tillgänglig källa som diskuterar detta ämne, till exempel någon utgivning av Elert. Vore oerhört tacksam om ni ville hänvisa mig till dessa genom att svara på detta mejl i så fall.
Vänligen, Ludvig Rødland

Dear phoneticians!
The Class for humanities and for outstanding services to science in collaboration with the Center for History of Science at The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences will host on the 25th May a Science History symposium to highlight the interdisciplinary character of Experimental Phonetics’ history.
The symposium will follow the humanist Armando de Lacerda’s (1902 – 1984) early work on Experimental Phonetics and the general scientific and cultural context in which it emerged, including Phonetics and Natural Sciences interactions from the late 1800s and up to about mid-1900s.
Further information on the symposium’s program and subsequent book release, please follow this link to The Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences home-page<https://www.kva.se/en/event/armando-de-lacerda-a-pioneer-of-experimental-ph…>. The event is public and free of charge but registration is necessary so that the lecture hall capacity can be adequately adjusted to the expected number of participants.
We would appreciate if you could help spreading this information to students, as we hope the symposium may help promoting a fruitful (or at least interesting) interdisciplinary perspective among young students.
Welcome!
Francisco
Vice Chair Class for humanities and for outstanding services to science
PS. No, Armando de Lacerda in not a relative of mine 😊DS

Dear colleagues,
I regret to inform you that this year's Swedish Phonetics Meeting in Umeå has been canceled.
The decision was made due to sudden changes in the personal sphere.
The website will be taken down on Monday. We sincerely apologize for any inconvenience this cancellation has caused and hope that work put into a planned phonetics meeting submission may be disseminated elsewhere.
On behalf of the organizers,
Fredrik Karlsson
