For this edition of the Poznań Linguistic Meeting, we invite participants to engage with the leitmotif “Linguistics in dialogue: looking for parallels beyond language.” We would like to encourage reflection on how linguistic phenomena can be illuminated/informed by other domains. Linguistics has long relied on analogies to describe, explain, and model language: language as a system, as a network, as a biological capacity, as a cultural phenomenon. Such metaphors often shape the questions we

« ‘‘À demain les Indiens’’ se dit en anglais : ‘‘Sioux tomorrow’’ » (Philippe Geluck)  Si « les langues diffèrent essentiellement par ce qu’elles doivent exprimer, et non par ce qu’elles peuvent exprimer » (Jakobson, 1963 : 84), la question de la transposition des jeux de mots et des traits d’humour d’une langue à une autre ne peut pas véritablement se poser comme une opposition entre « possible » ou « impossible ». L’humour et les jeux de mots ne se trouvent pas limités et enfermés dans la

Technological innovation is profoundly reshaping translation and interpreting (T&I). Over the past two decades digital tools—such as translation memories, terminology databases, CAT/CAI systems, Neural Machine Translation, alignment software, and remote interpreting platforms—have transformed professional workflows, enhancing quality, speed, and efficiency. More recent advances in Artificial Intelligence—including Automatic Speech Recognition (ASR), speech-to-speech (S2S) machine interpreting, a

Motivation and Topics of Interest: Understanding how LLMs capture, propagate, or even invent semantic shifts raises fundamental questions for lexicography, language modeling, and semantic resources. Addressing these questions requires close collaboration between computational linguistics, lexicography, and lexical resource development. Such interdisciplinary work can shed light on how large language models both reflect and reshape linguistic creativity, an inquiry that lies at the core of the

Forms of address — such as titles, honorifics, and pronominal choices—are among the most sensitive linguistic indicators of social relations, politeness norms, and identity. As societies undergo social, political, economic, and ideological transformations, corresponding shifts in politeness and address practices emerge. Migrant, colonial, and Indigenous heritage languages, which interact intensively with dominant societal languages, offer a particularly rich terrain for examining these dynamics.

I am conducting a short anonymous linguistic survey (approximately 5 minutes) as part of a research article on transport-related concepts and their representation in everyday language use. I am particularly interested in responses from English speakers, especially participants based in the United States, but all adult native or proficient speakers of English are welcome. The survey is strictly academic in nature, non-commercial, non-political, and does not collect any personal identifying
