9th Symposium on Corpus Approaches to Lexicogrammar (LxGr2024)

CALL FOR PAPERS

Deadline for abstract submission: Friday 15 March 2024

The symposium will take place online on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 July 2024.

LxGr primarily welcomes papers reporting on corpus-based research on any aspect of the interaction of lexis and grammar — particularly studies that interrogate the system lexicogrammatically to get lexicogrammatical answers. However, position papers discussing theoretical or methodological issues are also welcome, as long as they are relevant to both lexicogrammar and corpus linguistics.

If you would like to present, send an abstract of 500 words (excluding references) to lxgr@edgehill.ac.uk. Make sure that the abstract clearly specifies the research focus (research questions or hypotheses), the corpus, the methodology (techniques and metrics), the theoretical orientation, and the main findings. Abstracts will be double-blind reviewed, and decisions will be communicated within four weeks.

Full papers will be allocated 35 minutes (including 10 minutes for discussion).
Work-in-progress reports will be allocated 20 minutes (including 5 minutes for discussion).

There will be no parallel sessions.
Participation is free.
