Dear colleagues, 

We would like to invite you to complete a survey, which is part of a research project entitled ‘How Proper Names Refer’, conducted by Dr Siu-Fan Lee at the Hong Kong Baptist University. It aims to collect actual cases of reference shifts in linguistic practice as well as intuitive response to hypothetical scenarios.

This international conference is co-organised by the Basque Institute Etxepare and the University of Edinburgh. 

Its aims are to exchange knowledge and promote collaboration between academics and professionals working on minority-language media.

The conference will be in English.
