A current trend in contrastive corpus linguistics is to take register variation as a point of departure for identifying similarities and differences across languages. This volume looks back at central previous contributions in this area, and adds to our store of knowledge in the form of nine studies comparing English to five other languages in a wide variety of registers representing written, spoken, and written-to-be-spoken modes of communication. The volume starts with a semi-systematic review

For sixty years, applied linguistics has stood at the crossroads of language and society, by meeting real-world needs. 60 Years of Applied Linguistics: Toward more engaged research offers a compelling reflection on the field鈥檚 evolution while calling for a renewed commitment to socially responsive, ethically grounded scholarship. Inspired by the momentum of the 2023 AILA World Congress in France, this collective volume brings together leading international applied linguists to examine how

The source text is an unescapable part of any translation or translation process. Without source text, no translation. Yet it is only recently that scholars in the field of translation studies have begun exploring, theorizing, and conceptualizing the source text in a more systematic fashion. The present volume builds on and expands this work, exposing how source texts are never merely given but always constructed by translators and used for various purposes. The seven case studies, by researcher

Toponymy is the branch of Onomastics that studies place names. From among the subfields in Toponymy, in this work we focus on standardized toponymic repositories: toponymic lexical data bases. An adequate standardization of the major toponymy in the CPLP area assumes special relevance, as it embodies a normalizing function and is characterized by its enlarged scope. The Vocabul谩rio Topon铆mico (VT 鈥� toponymic wordlist), studied here, is a digital toponymic resource, a specialized vocabulary that

I am a PhD student in psycholinguistics at the University of Milano-Bicocca (Italy), and currently a visiting PhD student at Lund University (Sweden). I am recruiting Swedish native speakers who speak English as a second language for an online study on bilingualism. The study is conducted in English and explores how people think about words and what associations come to mind (for example, what words you might think of when you read or hear an English word like 鈥渓emon鈥�). Participation involves
