Le colloque « Les constructions et la constructionnalisation en langue française, espagnole et italienne » à réfléchir à la notion de construction, aussi bien d’un point de vue synchronique que diachronique, en adoptant différentes perspectives théoriques. On pourra présenter des analyses plutôt théoriques ou la description du fonctionnement d’une construction en particulier. Les propositions peuvent être ancrées dans les différentes composantes de la linguistique : morphologie, syntaxe, sémanti

The Angus McIntosh Centre for Historical Linguistics invites you to its 5th AMC Symposium, which will take place in December this year, at the University of Edinburgh. The event has the guiding theme of "Types of Evidence in Historical Linguistics" Background: How do we know what a language was like in the past? How do we know that it has changed (or is changing)? The study of language change, and of historical linguistics more generally, uses many different kinds of evidence, including am

This is an interdisciplinary workshop which addresses all topics ranging from Legibility to Text Simplification, including issues, resources, and manual and automatic methods related to measuring and improving text comprehensibility. The event brings together researchers, IT professionals, publishers, public institutions (e.g., Ministries of Education, schools), and practitioners (authors, teachers, translators) to discuss current challenges and innovative solutions. Specifically, we inv

In recent years, while preparing various digital Latvian and Lithuanian language resources (corpora, databases, dictionaries, wordnets, etc., e.g., Miliūnaitė, Aleksaitė 2011; Rimkutė et al. 2013; Dadurkevičius 2020a, 2020b; Andronova et al. 2022; Levāne-Petrova et al. 2023; see also LatvianWordNet https://wordnet.ailab.lv/; Kalnača, Pakalne 2026), the issue of compounds in both Baltic languages – their structural types, semantics and word formation models, as well as orthography issues – has be

The World Wide Web has evolved from a resource for building linguistic corpora into the central data infrastructure powering modern natural language processing and Large Language Models (LLMs). As web-scale data increasingly shapes AI systems’ knowledge and capabilities, understanding its quality, representativeness, and ethical implications has become critical. At the same time, the “more is better” paradigm is being challenged by issues such as machine-generated content, data toxicity, limi

Bilingualism and multilingualism are natural phenomena that have been extensively studied globally. However, monolingualism has been used as a standard to characterize and define bilingualism and multilingualism in linguistic research, leading to a distorted perception of these phenomena. This perspective is rapidly becoming obsolete due to the proliferation of multidisciplinary research. This session welcomes diverse perspectives on bilinguals and multilinguals from conceptual, theoretical, and

Se invitan contribuciones al Coloquio Silencio y sentido, de la gramática al discurso 3 y 4 de diciembre de 2026 FLL, Universidad Autónoma de Querétaro (presencial y en línea) Palabra y silencio se implican mutuamente. Se enlazan en la respiración, y así también conviven en cada parte del lenguaje. Hay silencios propios de los fonemas, de los morfemas, de las palabras y de las oraciones, y el silencio aparece en refranes, en la conversación y en el discurso público. De hecho, a la par

In a context marked by intensified and renewed relationships between science and society, numerous national and institutional initiatives currently emphasise the need for shared and co‑constructed forms of knowledge production. The French National Research Agency’s Science with and for Society (SAPS) programme illustrates this dynamic by supporting more than a hundred participatory research projects bringing together researchers, citizens, and territorial stakeholders around major social issues.

The 4th edition of LingCor: Workshop on Spoken Corpus Linguistics will take place at the Institut für Romanistik of the Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin from the 5th till the 7th October 2026. It builds on three previous editions held at the Universitat de València (2018), the Universitat d’Alacant (2019), and the University of Vienna (2024), continuing an established international forum dedicated to spoken corpus research.

This conference is the fourth in the Exploring Language Education (ELE) conference series, with previous editions in Stockholm, Oslo and Vasa. The ELE conferences are held every three years in changing locations. The ELE conferences employ a broad definition of language education, aiming to bring together scholars working in different areas of the field. The conferences are intended to reflect a variety of perspectives on language education (in terms of first and additional languages) with learn

Translation remains a cornerstone of the global economy, international trade, finance, and institutional activity. However, the field is undergoing a profound transformation driven by the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine translation (MT), which are redefining the very foundations of professional practice. Despite these changes, academic research is advancing at an uneven pace in comparison with technological developments. Studies on MT in the economic and financial doma

Many children worldwide grow up learning and using two or more languages. The experiences of multilingual children vary greatly. Therefore, it is impossible to treat multilingual children as a homogeneous group, and an increasing body of research examines how multilinguals differ from one another and how these differences influence their development. We aim to bring together psychology and interdisciplinary researchers who have adopted this perspective and are working toward a more realistic vie

This two-day workshop brings together an international line-up of female researchers working at the intersection of philosophy, theoretical linguistics, computational linguistics, logic, formal semantics and pragmatics, psychology, and political and social science. The event explores diverse perspectives on the semantics–pragmatics distinction, highlighting how interdisciplinary approaches can advance our understanding of meaning, context, and interpretation. The workshop highlights the contr
