Focus: Ancient Greek, Modern Greek, Historical linguistics
Description:
This is a one-week introduction to the Modern Greek language directed at graduate and undergraduate students, as well as interested faculty, who have at least a basic knowledge of the Ancient Greek language. The major objective of the program is to equip classicists with knowledge they can use to leverage their command of Classical Greek to gain a foothold in the modern language, essentially repurposing their Classical
The International Journal of Arabic Linguistics (IJAL) is an open-access, peer-reviewed journal dedicated to scholarly research on the Arabic language in all its varieties and contexts. IJAL welcomes work on the linguistic structure of Arabic, its history, and its functions in society, including (but not limited to) dialectology, sociolinguistics, historical linguistics, and related areas.
Publication model: Continuous publication (articles are published online as soon as they are ready).
Writing an academic text can be challenging for English learners, including Indonesian students studying at Hungarian Universities (HUs). These students must learn to write in a second language while mastering grammatical structures and lexical resources, as well as distinguishing between academic English and conversational English in terms of conventional words, phrases,and sentence structures.This study is aimed at examining students鈥� experiences in English academic writing during their master

For this edition of the Pozna艅 Linguistic Meeting, we invite participants to engage with the leitmotif 鈥淟inguistics in dialogue: looking for parallels beyond language.鈥� We would like to encourage reflection on how linguistic phenomena can be illuminated/informed by other domains.
Linguistics has long relied on analogies to describe, explain, and model language: language as a system, as a network, as a biological capacity, as a cultural phenomenon. Such metaphors often shape the questions we

Motivation and Topics of Interest:
Understanding how LLMs capture, propagate, or even invent semantic shifts raises fundamental questions for lexicography, language modeling, and semantic resources. Addressing these questions requires close collaboration between computational linguistics, lexicography, and lexical resource development. Such interdisciplinary work can shed light on how large language models both reflect and reshape linguistic creativity, an inquiry that lies at the core of the
