Phon&Phon is a series of meetings organised by the Department of Contemporary English Language. AMU Faculty of English researchers and invited guests talk about topics related to phonetics and phonology – hence the name. The meetings have a relatively informal nature and frequently result in heated discussion. All interested parties are welcome.
