The aim is to compare linguistic practices across European and Asian languages. We encourage comparative contributions or studies on lesser-studied languages.

Editors Takako Kawabata tk70@soas.ac.uk Daniela Cesiri daniela.cesiri@unive.it Call for Abstracts Overview and scope Language and food both function as semiotic systems that rely on shared conventions to convey meaning and to organize social life.

It structures

Call for Papers: How do we persuade someone to act against their initial intentions? How do we reshape what they think about an issue? Language is our most powerful tool for influence. We use it to convince, persuade, cajole, and coax, often without even realizing it. Words mold opinions, shift attitudes, and guide behavior. This symposium places the persuasive power of language at its very core. Linguists have traditionally examined the workings of persuasive language in institutionali

Call for Papers: Workshop Description: Digital humanities (DH) stand at the intersection of computing and the humanities, involving collaborative transdisciplinary research.

In the last ten years, significant advances in deep learning models and the development of Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized the fields of computational linguistics (CL) and natural language processing (NLP). In turn, this has led to a complete re-assessment of the language resources and evaluation practices necessary for training LLMs and analyzing their outputs. In particular, the availability of very large amounts of unstructured data for training foundational models has come i
