Acknowledgments
This volume contains a selection of papers from the 2003 Georgetown University
Round Table on Languages and Linguistics, widely known either as GURT or the
Round Table. The theme for GURT 2003 was “Language in Use: Cognitive and Dis-
course Perspectives on Language and Language Learning.” The papers were selected
by peer review from among more than 120 presentations and 5 plenary addresses.
The editors of this volume are Andrea Tyler, Mari Takada, Yiyoung Kim, and Diana
Marinova.
The chair for GURT 2003 was Andrea Tyler, professor of linguistics at
Georgetown University. Mari Takada, doctoral student in Georgetown’s Department
of Linguistics, was the conference coordinator. We also want to acknowledge the in-
valuable service of Ken Petersen, our webmaster, and Yiyoung Kim and Diana
Marinova, the assistant coordinators who helped ensure that the conference ran
smoothly. Our thanks also go to the members of Washington CogLink who enthusias-
tically provided intellectual support, in particular Joe Grady and Michael Israel. A
special thanks to the organizers of the four invited colloquia—Kendall King, Debby
Schiffrin, Deborah Tannen, and Sarah Taub—and the phenomenal group of scholars
who agreed to participate in the colloquia. We want to acknowledge the many gradu-
ate students and faculty members of the Department of Linguistics who volunteered
to assist in organizing and running the conference. Finally, we thank the faculty of
languages and linguistics for its generous financial support.
