The Multilingual Minds and Machines Meeting aims to bridge the gap between the scientific disciplines of multilingual language research, experimental psycholinguistics, and computational cognitive science. By exploring how empirical, human-oriented approaches can be more tightly integrated with the theoretical, computation-oriented methodologies, the workshop will further enhance research into the cognitive science of bi-/multilingualism.

Scope and goals of the volume:
Drawing on corpus-based research, the book investigates how clause , embedding, and phrase-level subordination contribute to complex meaning-making. It demonstrates how syntactic choices are determined by transitivity, agency, thematic progression, and the need to package information in discourse. In addition, the book investigates variation in complexity across spoken and written registers and academic genres, revealing how functional factors drive syntactic c

Priming and analogy are central mechanisms in human language. Priming supports the activation of linguistic structures and meanings, while analogy enables speakers to extend patterns and recognise relational similarities. Although both mechanisms are well studied, they have largely been investigated in isolation.

Bringing a timely contribution to scholarship about the linguistic variations of languages spoken in northern Afghanistan, the authors address gaps in existing literature, particularly regarding linguistic areality in Afghanistan and Uzbek identity. By exploring lesser-studied languages like Afghan Wakhi and Turkmen, they also provide fresh insights into Iranian and Turkic languages.
