The organizing committee asked several leading Russian and foreign scholars to give invited talks and is now awaiting their answer. We expect that Professor Juri Apresjan will give a talk, too. The working languages of the conference will be Russian and English. Papers may be submitted in either of these two languages.
Paper submission and reviewing will be organized using a web interface, to be accessed from the webpage of ''The Word and the Language'' conference: http://aprconf.iitp.ru. Submissions (in pdf or Word format, up to 10 pages) can be made from August 1 to November 1, 2009. The results of peer reviewing will be made available on November 20, 2009.
