More about Lexical Functional Grammar
(Last update: 11/10/2022)

This page has been set up to host some of the boilerplate [standard
text] that has previously been part of the LFG Bulletin, an email
newsletter sent out to subscribers to the LFG List
(http://listserv.linguistlist.org/archives/lfg.html).

This document contains further information about the following topics:

 1. The LFG website
 2. The LFG Bulletin
 3. The International Lexical Functional Grammar Association (ILFGA)

------------------------------------------------------------------------

1.  The LFG website

The official LFG website can be found at:

https://ling.sprachwiss.uni-konstanz.de/pages/home/lfg/

The website contains pointers and information on current research
directions in LFG, upcoming conferences, on-line papers and
proceedings, Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) about LFG, and more.

3. ILFGA

ILFGA is the official organization for those interested in LFG.

https://ling.sprachwiss.uni-konstanz.de/pages/home/lfg/ilfga/

3.1 Donate to ILFGA

There are three ways to make a donation:

1. Donate at the conference! The Secretary-Treasurer accepts donations
   at LFG conferences.

2. Send a check made out to "Intl. Lexical Functional Grammar Assc."
   in US dollars to ILFGA's Secretary-Treasurer, John Lowe. Please
   contact John Lowe for the required address information.
   (reverse: orinst.ox.ac.ukarts.unideb.hu !at! john.lowe)
   
This is the simplest (and cheapest) method if you have access to US
dollars.

3. Have money transfered directly into the account.  For this you
    need the account number and the ABA number (this number
    identifies the bank).

    Contact John Lowe for the required information.
    (reverse: orinst.ox.ac.ukarts.unideb.hu !at! john.lowe)


Note that there is usually a fee for transferring money this way and
so several people from the same institution/country may wish to
combine their donations into a single transfer.

Please let John Lowe know once you have made the deposit to
get your receipt.

ILFGA is a 501(3)c organization (i.e. a non-profit) and as such
contributions are tax deductible in the US (and perhaps elsewhere; if
you are not in the US, check your home country for tax status). A
receipt will be issued for each donation.
