Turkish, Turkic, and the Languages of Turkey, or Tu+ for short, is a workshop Faruk Akkuş and I started in 2015.
(Someone had initially suggested "tutu" as the nickname. Someone else suggested "Tu+", which sounded better. People have later pointed out that it's also possible to make "Tu+" sound funny. Two plus two four.)
Starting from the fourth edition, the name of the workshop changes to the Workshop on Turkic and languages in contact with Turkic. And, the LSA publishes our proceedings!
