To those affected by the Noto Peninsula earthquake
The earthquake that struck the Noto Peninsula on January 1, 2024 reportedly caused extensive damage, and we assume that some members of the Phonological Society in the area may have suffered damage to their homes or universities.
The Phonological Society has therefore decided to waive the annual membership fee for the current year (2024) for those members who have suffered damage. Members who wish to be exempted from the annual membership fee should contact the Society's Secretariat (Secretary General: Kuwamoto or Treasurer: Ueta, see the newsletter for contact details). No documents are required to prove the damage.
New site has been released.
Newsletter 25:3 (74) has been issued.
Phonological Studies 24 (issued in March, 2021) has been finally sent out!
For the moment, we have sent copies to those who live in Japan and hold the PhSJ membership as of March 2021, having paid their membership fee for year 2020. For our members living abroad, please wait a little longer. We will send them to you at a later date.
Once again, we apologize for the inconvenience this has caused, and thank you for your understanding.
Due to the extension of the COVID-19 State of Emergency until September 12, we will once again postpone the delivery of Phonological Studies 24. Should it be delayed any further after early-September, we will notify you again on this webpage and by email.
We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience and appreciate your understanding.
We have decided to offer an exemption of this year’s annual membership fee (JPY4,000) for our student members in order to financially support them during this time of the pandemic.
Those who are willing to support our society can be Sustaining Members (membership fee: JPY10,000). Please contact our Treasurer for the details.
