We are happy to announce that the 13th edition of the International Word Processing Conference (WoProc 2026) will take place in Lisbon, Portugal, from 6鈥�8 July 2026.
WoProc 2026 continues the legacy of the International Morphological Processing Conference (MoProc)鈥攁 biennial event that, since 1999, has brought together researchers from around the world to exchange ideas and discuss advances in morphological processing.
As in the previous edition (WoProc 2024 in Belgrade), the scope of the

We are pleased to announce that ICAME47 will take place in Koblenz (Germany) on 26-30 May 2026. ICAME (International Computer Archive of Modern and Medieval English) is an annual international conference and one of the longest-standing organisations of linguists and data scientists working with English language corpora.
The conference theme is 鈥淎 Confluence of Corpus Research in the Age of AI鈥�. We welcome abstracts on both traditional and innovative corpus-based appr
After a comprehensive description of the French and English tense, aspect, mood/modality (TAM) systems in Chapter 1, an overview of key theoretical perspective and applied perspectives from the morpheme-order studies to examples of internal and external interfaces in monolingual child acquisition is presented in Chapter 2. The literature review of L2 studies illustrates the subtleties of TAM properties in Chapter 3. It is followed by the rigorous methodology of a cross-sectional empirical study
As digital advancements reshape communication, researchers need interdisciplinary methods to understand the cognitive processes involved. This essential reference for advanced students and researchers provides a comprehensive introduction to innovative research methods in cognitive translation and interpreting studies (CTIS). International experts from diverse disciplines share best practices for investigating cognitive processes in multilectal mediated communication. They emphasize the applicat
This volume honors the scholarly legacy of Kimberly L. Geeslin. Geeslin鈥檚 pioneering work on variation in the Spanish copula system united and extended research in the fields of second language acquisition and sociolinguistics. Geeslin laid the foundation for a growing subfield of investigation that explores how interlanguages vary in systematic and socially meaningful ways across various modules of language; how variation in learner language relates to the speakers, contexts, and experiences le
Call for Abstracts:
This Digital Studies in Language and Literature Special Issue invites work that explores how GenAI literacy is defined, measured, and promoted within language and literature classrooms. We seek contributions that move beyond speculative frameworks to offer empirical insights. This includes research that validates instruments for measuring GenAI literacy, explores interventions targeting GenAI literacy, and investigates how GenAI develops overtime in learners. This may also i
Meeting Description:
Since Downing's (1970) seminal work on English intonational phrases (IPs), a growing body of literature has shown that selected types of subordinate clauses can clearly form their own IPs. As for English, it has been generally observed that adverbial clauses are prosodically integrated into the matrix clause when they appear in their base position or attach to a position that is in the scope of the main verb. For example, Downing (1970: 82) observes that temporal "while"-
Meeting Description:
Over the past years, the international scientific network "Adverbial Clauses and Subordinate Dependency Relationships", funded by the German Science Foundation (grant no. 455700544), has brought together a growing body of scholars to investigate the structure, function, and variation of adverbial clauses from a range of theoretical and empirical perspectives. The conferences have addressed their syntax, semantics, prosody, diachrony, typology, and cross-linguistic variation
Meeting Description:
Subordinate clauses are among the most prominent linguistic phenomena illustrating the capacity of a computational mechanism to generate recursive structures. A central question in this domain is whether all subordination strategies can be reduced to a single abstract structure. This issue has inspired several productive lines of inquiry. One influential hypothesis is that complement clauses, particularly those embedded under factive predicates, may be analyzed as a subty

No wonder sugar is on everyone鈥檚 lips (pun intended): it is just an omnipresent item and a hotly debated topic. But there are many facets to it: sugar is an agricultural product, a food item, a nutrient, and a biochemical component of our bodies. The meanings of sugar are thus constructed in many different discourses, with different aspects being foregrounded. Many of these aspects are problematic and controversial, whether the role of slavery and the exploitation of people and the environment i
The main aim of the Workshop on Linguistic Variation at Interfaces III 鈥� VARINT26 is to widen our understanding of the empirical phenomena displaying linguistic variation, their relevance for the design of the overall grammatical architecture, and the current status of approaches to variation in terms of (micro) parameters and networks.
