Workshop "Phonetics and phonology in loanword adaptation" (PaPLA2017)

We organized a workshop about the roles that phonetics and phonology play in the adaptation of loanwords. This workshop, perhaps somewhat unsurprisingly called "Phonetics and phonology in loanword adaptation", was held in Cologne on Sunday June 11, 2017, prior to the conference Phonetics and Phonology in Europe 2017.

Organizers:
Silke Hamann and Klaas Seinhorst, University of Amsterdam.

Invited speakers:
Sharon Peperkamp (Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique, Paris),
Marko Simonović (Utrecht University, the Netherlands)
