The LINGUIST List - Thu, 06/11/2026 - 07:05
Machine Translation (MT) and Artificial Intelligence (AI) are now an integral part of professional practice in business translation. However, their actual performance in this field remains poorly studied. The literature on their training application is still scarce, as reflected in the data from BITRA (Franco Aixelá, 2001-2025), and most current studies suggest that this type of research is still in an exploratory phase. In the professional sphere, references to the performance, quality or ad

Conferences - Thu, 06/11/2026 - 06:05
Following the metalinguistic term verbi procomplementari coined by De Mauro (1999-2000: xxxiv), procomplement verbs (PCVs) denotes a heterogeneous class of multi-word verbs whose distinctive feature is a lexicalized (i.e., obligatory) clitic pronoun or pronoun cluster which contributes to the verbs’ semantics and/or syntax in several ways. Based on the different contributions, PCVs can be grouped into several subclasses distributed along a continuum ranging from transparent constructions where t
