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.



 



Invited Speakers



Lise Fontaine  (Université du Québec à Trois-Rivières): Reconciling (or not) lexis and grammar



Ute Römer-Barron (Georgia State University): Phraseology research in second language acquisition



 



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.



 



Abstracts for research papers should specify the research focus (research questions or hypotheses), the corpus, the methodology (techniques, metrics), the theoretical orientation, and the main findings. Abstracts for position papers should specify the theoretical orientation and the potential contribution to both lexicogrammar and corpus linguistics.



 



Abstracts will be double-blind reviewed by members of the Programme Committee.



 



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.
