This workshop explores Long Distance Agreement (LDA) phenomena, focusing on how agreement mechanisms go beyond local domains. We aim at discussing the implications of their findings for syntactic theory, particularly regarding locality conditions, the interaction of movement with agreement, the potential overlap (or lack thereof) of Case and agreement domains, and, more generally, the variation landscape that we may expect when we compare languages differing in dependent types (infinitives, no

Silence has crossed disciplines, historical periods, and forms of expression, taking on different meanings and functions. It may appear as emptiness, pause, interruption, or absence; yet at the same time, it can constitute a form of latent presence — a trace of what has been removed, censored, or rendered invisible. Silence may also represent a site of resistance and possibility: from being an instrument of control to becoming an effect of individual or collective trauma that resists verbalis

The Collaborative Research Center 1629 “Negation in Language and Beyond” (NegLaB) at the Universities of Frankfurt, Tübingen and Göttingen invites linguists and psychologists to submit papers to the 3rd NegLaB Workshop (NegLaB III) to be held at the University of Frankfurt on the 1st and 2nd of December 2026.

Identity is not something we have, it is something we do. It emerges in discourse, takes shape through interaction and becomes legible through the semiotic resources we bring into play across contexts. From everyday conversation to institutional communication, from digital platforms to embodied practices, identity is continuously performed, negotiated and contested. In contemporary societies marked by mobility, digital mediation and ecological crisis, identity is increasingly fluid, relationa

Stable perception of spectral information across contexts: From normalization to adaptive category representations Time: Thursday 11 June, 8.30-12.00 Place: Pärlan, Campus Albano (House 1, floor 6) One of the striking features of human speech perception is its stability: despite substantial between-talker differences arising from variation in vocal tract physiology, language background, and social factors, listeners typically understand speech with relative ease. This workshop focuses on th

The organizing committee of "Recontextualisation et Médiation des Discours Spécialisés / Recontextualisation and Mediation of Specialised Discourses" invites abstract submissions for the conference to be held at the Université Grenoble-Alpes from January 20 to 22, 2027.

There is a heightened and growing interest in integrating (formal) linguistics into the language classroom (Trotzke & Kupisch, 2020), as evidenced by the recent launch of the journal Pedagogical Linguistics in 2020 (Hudson, 2020; Trotzke, 2023; Widdowson, 2020) and large-scale pedagogical projects like Sheehan and colleagues’ Modern Foreign Languages in the UK (Sheehan et al., 2021, 2024). The claim is that appropriate adaptation of theoretical linguistic concepts and knowledge for the classroom

We are excited to announce the second edition of a new recurring meeting dedicated exclusively to computational psycholinguistics. This meeting aims to provide a dedicated platform for researchers and practitioners to discuss computational models that explain and predict human linguistic behavior (e.g., as observed in psycholinguistic experiments), to bring together experts from different subfields to advance our understanding of language processing mechanisms, and to analyze the successes an
