| | Dan Dediu & Bob Ladd - Genetic influences on tonogenesis and the geographical distribution of tone languages? |
 | | Now, we analyze the database, methods, results and their implications, especially focusing on tonogenesis, and Bob will introduce, in this context, his ideas on the sequential/simultaneous structure of language, which might represent an essential component of the mechanism explaining the correlation we found. |
 | | This is a dry run for a conference Tone: mind, brain, evolution at Freudental, Germany, 18-21 Oct, 2006, the slot is 1 hour and a half, the style is probably very much like LEC-style open presentations. |
 | | The format will be something like: Bob introducing the problem for 5 mins, Dan for 20-30 mins showing what they did and then Bob again for 20-30 mins discussing its meaning. |
