The Eighth Inter-Regional Forum on Dialectal Grammar
The Inter-Regional Forum on Chinese Dialectal Grammar (IRF) was initiated by The Chinese University of Hong Kong and Sun Yat-sen University in 2015 and extended its partnership with Fudan University in 2017, which has become an academic event organised rotationally by these three institutions as a platform intended to foster research on dialectal grammar under a comparative approach, focusing on southeastern Chinese dialects like Yue and Wu dialects, to promote interregional studies, and to strengthen intellectual exchange and dialogue among researchers from different regions.
The Eighth Inter-Regional Forum on Dialectal Grammar organised by the Department of Chinese, Sun Yat-sen University and co-organised by the T.T. Ng Chinese Language Research Centre was held on 6–7 August, 2022. For the details of the forum, please visit http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/ics/clrc/irf/.
