Any conference presenter may choose to enter the competition by preparing afive-minute audiovisual version of their paper that is structured in a way nonlinguists can understand. All entries will be shown after one of the keynote addresses, and the 1st and 2nd place winners will be announced. Prizes will be book certificates from major publishers that publish books on Pidgins and Creoles. All videos will be uploaded to the YouTube channel of the Jamaican Language Unit.
