From today, August 17 to Friday 21, 2009, the 6th World Congress of African Linguistics (WOCAL6) is held in Cologne, Germany. Dozens of papers on topics relating to all aspects of the study of African languages (including African sign languages) will be presented.
There are not many papers on Chadic languages, but there are quite a few on other Afroasiatic families, including Berber, Cushitic and Semitic.
