Coexistence of borrowed and native word formation morphology is a widespread if not universal characteristic of languages (Matras & Sakel 2007; Gardani, Arkadiev & Amiridze 2015). In many cases, foreign derived morphemes occupy specific lexical strata or registers, reflecting a compartmentalisation into native and borrowed subsystems (Matras 2009). For example, English word formation features both native Germanic and borrowed Latinate suffixes (e.g., -ness vs. -ity, respectively), whereby some o

In un mondo globalizzato, caratterizzato da confini sociali, economici e culturali diventati sempre pi霉 labili, l鈥檌ncontro di lingue e culture ha mutato volto, evolvendosi con complessit脿 e dinamicit脿 crescenti, superando frontiere di diversa natura e portata (Matras, 2009; Horner & Weber, 2018).

The International Conference on Formal Approaches to Meaning in Chinese emphasizes the semantic analysis of the Chinese languages, as well as other languages in reference to Chinese, within the framework of formal semantics using logical tools such as first-order logic, Boolean algebra, lattice theory, etc. This conference series, with the first held in 2019, provides a platform for scholars to share their latest research findings on formal semantics of the Chinese languages. The conference a

(German version below) s u u u u u p e r awesome patterns of iNtEnSiFiCaTiOn!!11eleven (Workshop at DGfS Trier, 24.-27.02.2026) The workshop focuses on the formal and functional diversity of intensification, e.g. which strategies and constructions are used in linguistic expressions, in which contexts do they occur, as well as which semiotic elements can be intensified. Intensification is far more diverse than just lexicogrammatical phenomena, with phenomena occurring on on all communicative

All Germanic languages exhibit patterns in which two components of a constituent interpreted as a semantic complex surface in a discontinuous syntactic configuration. Such constructions include, e.g., so-called what-for-phrases (1), locative adverbs featuring indexical particles (2), prepositional adverbs (3) and aggressively non-D-linked expressions (4): (1) Norwegian [Hva](i) har du lest [t(i) for slags bok]? what have you read for sorts book 鈥榃hat kind of book did you read?鈥� (Leu

The First Workshop on Optimal Reliance and Accountability in Interactions with Generative Language Models (ORIGen) will be held in conjunction with the Second Conference on Language Modeling (COLM) at the Palais des Congr猫s in Montreal, Quebec, Canada, on October 10, 2025! With the rapid integration of generative AI, exemplified by large language models (LLMs), into personal, educational, business, and even governmental workflows, such systems are increasingly being treated as 鈥渃ollaborators鈥�

(Im)politeness plays a crucial role in the analysis of dramatic dialogue, revealing complex aspects of characterization, plot development, and the underlying structure of social harmony or discord. The ways in which characters deploy impoliteness strategies on stage provide insights into power dynamics, relationships, and the negotiation of social boundaries. Beyond its narrative function, impoliteness also serves as an important theatrical tool: it can enhance entertainment, generate humour, an

OASIS 5 (Ontology As Structured by the Interfaces with Semantics 5) will take place at the University of Edinburgh in the UK, December 3-5, 2025. The OASIS conference series aims to promote conversation across different disciplines that interface with semantics, using ontological questions as shared reference points. The broad questions in the background are these: - What basic ontological building blocks do we use to talk and think about the world? - How do these building blocks get comb

Description: Register refers to linguistic patterns associated with particular situational contexts (Seoane & Biber, 2021, p. 2) where the linguistic patterns are clusters of features having a greater-than random likelihood to co-occur. In register studies, the focus has traditionally been on the aggregative analysis of lexico-grammatical features in entire texts, thus neglecting the dynamic unfolding of situations 鈥� linked by the above definition to register 鈥� over time. However, the situation

This 3rd DIELE conference, to be held at Stellenbosch University in South Africa in 2026, follows the two successful conferences in Bangkok (2022) and Tokyo (2024).
