Clitics are a highly prominent category in Slavic languages, which raises fundamental questions about the interfaces between syntax, morphology, phonology, and information structure. They occupy a theoretical middle ground between words and affixes, and their placement often reflects complex interactions among syntactic position, prosodic structure, and discourse-related constraints (Franks & King 2000; Bošković 2001, 2008, 2016; Milićević 2023, a.m.o.). Slavic languages, with their rich clitic

A key feature of the challenge is the dataset itself: participants will work with nearly 560k transcribed utterances representing 519 hours of child speech, includ

Have you ever tried to "make eye contact" with a faceless robot to figure out what it's about to do? Join us for an exciting research project at the forefront of robotics innovation, to figure out a better way for robots to communicate with people! Robots are entering human spaces, but they are still struggling to communicate effectively with us. Whether assisting older adults, delivering goods, supporting education, or navigating busy public environments, robots must make their intentions u

As a linguist engaged extensively in fieldwork and linguistic elicitation (wordlists, paradigms, sentence frames, and more), I began to notice a recurring pattern: most of us prepare our elicitation materials in spreadsheets. That observation led to a simple question: Why not let the spreadsheet become the elicitation sheet? From that idea, I developed Elisheet — a Google Sheets–based script designed to support structured linguistic elicitation and audio data collection directly within a spre

The contemporary world is marked by a state of ongoing tension, no longer driven by isolated crises, but by the convergence and interplay of multiple, simultaneous crises: pandemics, war, migration, climate catastrophes, economic instability, disinformation, and the erosion of social trust. This polycrisis has become a new paradigm of experiencing reality — complex, unpredictable, and difficult to articulate in simple terms. In this context, language gains critical importance — not only as a to
