The annual conference of the International Association of Predictive Linguistics (IAPL) invites submissions that explore how anticipatory mechanisms shape language, both in human cognition and in artificial systems. The event brings together researchers, practitioners and professionals who examine how linguistic behaviour emerges from patterns that guide expectations, internal simulations and real time adjustments during interaction.
The conference focuses on the links between theoretical ins
The Southeast Asian Linguistics Society (SEALS) invites scholars to submit abstracts for the 35th Annual Meeting of the Southeast Asian Linguistics Society (SEALS 35), to be held at Nanyang Technological University (NTU), Singapore, from 3 - 5 June 2026.

LFG26 welcomes work within the formal architecture of Lexical-Functional Grammar as well as typological, formal, and computational work within the 'spirit of LFG' as a lexicalist approach to language employing a parallel, constraint-based framework. The conference aims to promote interaction and collaboration among researchers interested in non-derivational approaches to grammar, where grammar is seen as the interaction of (perhaps violable) constraints from multiple levels of structuring, inclu

We are pleased to invite you to a two-day conference of different academic and activist perspectives that will tug at the ideological threads woven into intercomprehension and unfasten it from its purely linguistic interpretation to achieve a transdisciplinary understanding.
