目標 Aims
第八屆粵語語言學論壇（FoCaL-8）由香港大學中文學院與香港語言學學會合辦，旨在建立一個平台，讓學生們分享最新研究進展，並聽取同儕意見。目前不同院校之間的學生交流不多，有鑑於此，熱切希望本論壇能夠促進跨院校的交流與合作。
The Eighth Forum on Cantonese Linguistics (FoCaL-8) will be jointly held by School of Chinese, The University of Hong Kong and The Linguistic Society of Hong Kong, with a focus on Cantonese linguistics. We hope to establish a friendly platform for students to present their latest work and receive various peers’ comments. In light of limited intellectual exchange among students across different institutes, we also hope the forum can stimulate inter-institute collaboration.
主題 Topics
歡迎研究生、本科生報告與粵語語言學有關（語音學、音系學、形態學、句法學、語義學、語言習得、心理語言學、神經語言學）、而尚未出版的研究，尤其是進行中的項目、初步研究、學期論文——總之，本論壇歡迎任何希望得到反饋的研究。
We welcome presentations on any topic related to Cantonese linguistics (phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, acquisition, psycholinguistics, neurolinguistics), from postgraduate and undergraduate students. We appreciate any unpublished work, especially on-going research, preliminary research projects and term papers — ideas and thoughts that are in need of peers’ comments and discussion.
特邀講者 Invited Speakers （按姓氏英文排序 in alphabetic order of surnames）
- 曹雯苓博士 Dr. CAO Wenling （都柏林大學 University College Dublin）

論壇形式 Forum Format
論壇以混合形式（現場＋網上）舉行。我們鼓勵香港與會者來現場一起討論，海外與會者如果不能前來，也非常歡迎在網上報告和討論。
The forum will take place in a hybrid (onsite + online) mode. We encourage Hong Kong participants to come in person to discuss, and overseas participants who cannot attend onsite may also present and join the discussion online.
報告形式 Presentation Format
為了切合論壇目標，我們將採用圓桌會議的報告形式。每場報告長30分鐘，分兩部分：前5分鐘簡述要旨（類似「電梯簡報」）；後25分鐘加以闡釋，中途聽眾可以隨意發問、評論。報告語言方面，除英文、普通話以外，我們也非常歡迎以粵語進行報告。
Concerning the presentation format, we would like to adopt a format of round table discussion, with a view to stay close to our proposed goals for this forum. Each presentation would be 5+25 minutes long. In the first five minutes we encourage our presenters to deliver the main idea (like an elevator pitch), followed by a 25-minute presentation with details and explanation, interspersed with questions and comments from the audience. For presentation language, we welcome presentations in Cantonese, in addition to English and Mandarin.
摘要形式 Abstract Format
摘要（含參考文獻及例句）不超過一頁A4紙；字體大小12，邊界長1寸。摘要須匿名提交，切勿列出姓名、所屬院校等個人資料。摘要可以使用粵語、英文或者規範中文書寫。
The abstract must be within one A4-page with 12 font size and 1 inch margin, including references and examples. Do not include your name or affiliation in the abstract. It can be written in Cantonese, English or Standard Chinese.
