The 1st Multilinguality in the Lexicon Workshop took place in April 1996 as
part of the AISB workshop series at Sussex, and brought together researchers
with a wide range of experiences in multilingual lexicon development. In this
second MLL workshop, we invite papers illustrating progress made since the
first meeting, as well as papers on new approaches and applications. As
before, the workshop will provide  an opportunity for people working on all
aspects of multilingual lexicons, both theoretical and practical, to focus on
the particular problems and questions associated with multilingual lexical
representation.

Papers are invited on any aspects of multilinguality in the lexicon
including but not limited to: pragmatics, semantics, syntax, morphology,
phonology, orthography; machine translation, generation, understanding;
bilingual and multilingual issues; related and unrelated languages;
issues of representation and access.

The workshop will run for one day as part of ECAI-98 in Brighton, UK. To
ensure a workshop rather than mini-conference format, presented papers will be
interspersed with substantial discussion sessions. In order to maximise
participation, attendees not presenting papers (and perhaps some who are) may
be asked to lead the discussion sessions.

SUBMISSION FORMAT:
Extended abstracts of not more than 6 pages (A4) are invited.  Submissions
should be either hard copy or (preferebly) electronic in self-contained LaTeX
or Postscript files.  Submissions should include authors' name, affiliation,
email and full postal address and should be sent to:

    Lynne Cahill
