5th Bilingualism in the Hispanic and Lusophone World Conference
https://easyabs.linguistlist.org/submit/BHL/
We are pleased to announce the 5th edition of the Bilingualism in the Hispanic and Lusophone World Conference (BHL), which will be held at the University of Reading from January 12 to 14, 2026. This biennial international event 鈥� previously hosted by Leiden University (2015, 2019), Florida State University (2017), and Universidad de las Am茅ricas Puebla (2024) 鈥� bri
Preamble: Many contemporary studies treat the lexicon as an autonomous entity not affected by other components of a given language (Je偶ek 2016, Pustejovsky and Batiukova 2024, Talmy 2007, 2023).
The aim of the workshop is to examine how functions encoded in the grammatical systems, and the forms used to encode them (i.e. syntax), interact with the lexicon. The following are some of the manifestations of the grammatical system on the lexicon that will be examined at the workshop:

LeWiDi: Shared task on Learning With Disagreement - Call for participation
We'd like to invite researchers in disagreement and variation to participate in the third edition of the LeWidi shared tasks held in conjunction with the NLPerspectives workshop at the EMNLP conference in Suzhou, China.
The LeWiDi series is positioned within the growing body of research that questions the practice of label harmonization and the reliance on a single ground truth in AI and NLP. This year's shared ta
IWCS is a biennial conference on computational semantics. This year'svedition is organized by Heinrich Heine University D眉sseldorf. The conference is endorsed by SIGSEM, the ACL Special Interest Group on Computational Semantics.
The aim of the IWCS conference is to bring together researchers interested in any aspects of the computation, annotation, extraction, representation and learning of meaning in natural language, whether this is from a lexical or structural semantic perspective. IWCS em

NLPerspectives 鈥� The 4th Workshop on Perspectivist Approaches to NLP
Collocated with EMNLP in Suzhou, China
Until recently, language resources supporting many tasks in Natural Language Processing (NLP) and other areas of Artificial Intelligence (AI) have been based on the assumption of a single 鈥榞round truth鈥� label sought via aggregation, adjudication, or statistical means. However, the field is increasingly focused on subjective and controversial tasks, such as qual

The Doshisha University Institute for the Liberal Arts (Kyoto), in cooperation with the University of Bremen (Germany), is initiating the first colloquium for young researchers in the field of sociolinguistics. We invite graduate students, postdoctoral, and early-career researchers to participate in our colloquium and present their current work. The aim of the colloquium is to connect young scholars in the field of sociolinguistics (broadly imagined) and provide a supportive

LxGr primarily welcomes papers reporting on corpus-based research on any aspect of the interaction of lexis and grammar -- particularly studies that interrogate the system lexicogrammatically to get lexicogrammatical answers. However, position papers discussing theoretical or methodological issues, as well as descriptions or demonstrations of tools or resources are also welcome, as long as they are relevant to both lexicogra
