Oxford University Press invites you to help shape the future of Al evaluations in second language (L2) education by participating in an exciting research project.
We are asking language educators and assessors to:
Complete four short online tasks (~ one hour total).
Rate Al evaluations for authenticity and adequacy.
Compare Al vs. "gold-standard" responses.
This will contribute to the development of benchmarks for evaluating AI system capabilities in second language education.
Final Call for Papers:
CFP Deadline Extended to February 28
After the success of our initial two workshops focused on meaning and form, we are excited to launch a third POQAL meeting, this time without subject limitations. We hope to welcome your research on polar(-like) questions, especially in lesser studied languages and dimensions of form and meaning. As before, the aim is to discuss the phenomenon across subdisciplines and we will do everything we can to curate a program to facilitate
The Semantics and Philosophy in Europe (SPE) colloquia provides a forum for presenting research in the interface between linguistic semantics and various areas of philosophy (philosophy of language, philosophy of mind/cognition, metaphysics, and philosophy of mathematics). This year's colloquium Semantics and Philosophy in Europe (SPE13) wants to foster in particular the dialogue between applied ontology, as a semantic technology in computer science, and linguistics and philosophy.

This conference seeks to refine our understanding of the relationship between form and meaning in exclamative structures. It aims to provide as comprehensive an account as possible of form-meaning correspondences in exclamative structures by bringing together scholarly contributions on a broad range of languages and corpora.
A key challenge lies in the terminological ambiguity of the term exclamation as it applies to different levels of language and to a variety of meanings. This issue, which

The MapLE project has created a glossary of terms used in epistemicity: https://epistemicity.net/glossary/
We (Giosu猫 Balocco, Jenneke van der Wal, Seppo Kittil盲) wanted to create some clarity in the terminology of evidentiality, egophoricity, mirativity, information structure and epistemic modality, including hyperlinks to compare the various terms. So if you鈥檝e always wanted to know the 8 alternative names for 鈥檔on-egophoric鈥� or look up what 鈥榩rivileged access鈥� means, we hope this glossary
