En fonction des dernières informations concernant le coronavirus et les recommandations officielles en France, nous ne pourrons plus organiser en présentiel le colloque au mois de mai. L’organisation envisagée avec des moyens technologiques est également compromise dans la mesure où les restrictions concernent l’ensemble des personnels et des locaux. En ce sens, nous projetons de reporter ce colloque au mois d’octobre (16-18 octobres, à confirmer). Cette solution avait été évoquée lors du dernier message (02.03.20). Concernant les inscriptions, nous proposons aux personnes qui ont déjà payé en ligne, de conserver cette somme pour le mois d’octobre, si cela leur convient (merci de nous contacter). Pour les personnes qui ont choisi l’option « NO TRAVEL » mais qui voudront cependant faire le déplacement pour octobre, il leur sera demandé de régler la différence (merci de nous contacter). Les frais d’inscriptions pourront également être remboursés, à condition que la demande soit faite avant le 28 mai, date à laquelle le colloque aurait dû se tenir.Merci de votre compréhension. Le colloque de juillet est pour l’heure maintenu.
Según las últimas informaciones sobre el coronavirus y las recomendaciones oficiales en Francia, ya no es posible organizar para nosotros la conferencia prevista inicialmente en mayo. La organización que habíamos planeado con medios tecnológicos también se ve comprometida en la medida en que las restricciones afectan tanto al personal como los locales. Así que planeamos posponer la conferencia hasta el mes de octubre (del 16 al 18 de octubre, fechas por confirmar) como ya lo habíamos mencionado en nuestro último mensaje (02.03.20). En cuanto a las inscripciones, les proponemos a los que ya han pagado en línea, mantener este importe para el mes de octubre, si les conviene (por favor, contáctenos). Para aquellos que han elegido la opción “NO TRAVEL” pero que deseen viajar en octubre, se les pedirá que paguen la diferencia (por favor, contáctenos). Los derechos de inscripción también pueden ser reembolsados, siempre que la solicitud se haga antes del 28 de mayo, fecha en la que la conferencia debía realizarse.Gracias por su comprensión. Por el momento, la conferencia de julio se mantiene.
Segons la informació més recent sobre el coronavirus i les recomanacions oficials a França, ja no podem organitzar la conferència al mes de maig com inicialment previst. L’organització que habiem plantejat amb mitjans tecnològics també es veu compromesa ja que les restriccions afecten tant al personal i com als llocs. En aquest sentit, tenim previst ajornar aquesta conferència al mes d’octubre (del 16 al 18 d’octubre, per confirmar) com ja habiem evocat al nostre darrer missatge (02.03.20). Pel que fa a les inscripcions, podem proposar a les persones que ja han pagat en línia, guardar aquest import pel mes d’octubre, si us convé (poseu-vos en contacte amb nosaltres). Per a les persones que hagin triat l’opció “NO TRAVEL” però que vulguin fer el viatge al mes d’octubre, se’ls demanarà que paguin la diferència (poseu-vos en contacte amb nosaltres). També es poden reemborsar les despeses d’inscripció, sempre que la sol·licitud es faci abans del 28 de maig, data en què s’habia de fer la conferència.Gràcies per la seva comprensió. Actualment es manté la conferència de juliol.
The 15thInternational American Association for Corpus Linguistics Conference (AACL2020) will take place September 18-19 2020 at Northern Arizona University
Main conference general program Call for papers. We invite contributions on a broad and inclusive basis. There are three categories of proposals (full papers, posters and panels). All proposals will be peer-reviewed by the conference program committee. The conference will feature three thematic streams in the general program. The thematic streams are as follows:
Linguistic analyses of corpora as they relate to language use (e.g., register/genre variation, lexical and grammatical variation, language varieties, historical change, lexicography)
Application (the use of corpora in language teaching and learning, as well as other applied fields such as testing and legal research)
Tools and methods (corpus creation, corpus annotation, tagging and parsing, corpus analysis software)
Submission categories
There will be three categories of presentations at the conference: Full papers Consisting of a 20-minute talk followed by 5 minutes for questions and discussion. Submissions should present completed research where substantial results have been achieved. (Work in progress should be submitted as a poster abstract.) Abstracts should be 300 words (maximum), excluding the word count for references. Posters Posters can present either results of completed research or work in progress.. We especially welcome poster abstracts that (a) report on innovative research that is in its early phases, or (b) report on new software or corpus data resources. Abstracts should be 200 words (maximum), excluding the word count for references. Panels Panels during the main conference offer an opportunity to group related papers together to allow for extended discussions. Proposals for panels should include the abstracts for the individual presentations (300 words max), together with an introductory abstract (200 words max) introducing the overall goals of the panel. Panels will be allocated time slots up to a maximum of 2 hours.
Pre-conference Workshops Half-day pre-conference workshops will take place on Thursday Sept 17. Abstracts for submission (max. 300 words) should include a complete description of the half-day workshop (max time 3 hours).

University of Zaragoza, TERUEL (24-27 September 2019)
In LD6, we set out to cast light on the intricacies of persuasive discourse and the manifold reactions it may engender in today’s globalised and multicultural societies. At the core of this endeavour is a genuine willingness and commitment to tease out the nature of persuasion in diverse contexts (e.g. art, education, business, sport, companies, the private sphere, etc.), through diverse channels (e.g. face-to-face interaction, on-line communication, published articles, performances, etc.), and as more or less relevant to diverse identities (e.g. linguistic, political, gendered, etc.). As in previous LD editions, interdisciplinarity will also be key for us. This time, in LD6, the collaboration and cross-fertilisation of knowledge will show in an organising and scientific team encompassing Philology, Psychology, Education, Business and Fine Arts, five areas representing the extremely enriching interdisciplinary make-up of the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences in Teruel.
