We're excited to re-launch the journal "Innovations in Linguistics Education", a forum for evidence-based research in the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) in linguistics! We open for submissions in January 2026. journals.ed.ac.uk/innovations/

It was so great (and so fitting) to spend the World Linguistics Day with the absolutely lovely group of linguists at Augsburg University!🙂Looking forward to meeting a few others tomorrow!

Excited to talk about prototypicality of register texts and the functional basis for textual linguistic variation and to hear about Augsburg team's work on related questions! #linguistics #prototypetheory #register Interdisciplinary Linguistics Colloquium Augsburg share.google/MiPgf4K0DGgq...

Peter Uhrig on multimodal constructions may just be the definition of how cool #linguistics is. Just in case anyone was looking for a reminder😉

This looks like something I have to have! 😺

It was a lot of fun introducing our #Text&Language Lab at #DHSS25 last month! @dhssfau.bsky.social @fau.de

It's Week 1 of the semester @fau.de, and I had an amazing time starting my multidimensional analysis course today! It was especially great to have students joining after Register & Variation among Texts that I taught last year! Looking forward to the rest of the semester! #register #linguistics #MDA

📢Just out! Duran, Weirich, & Jannedy examine phonetic variation in German as they manipulate formality of the addressee, function of the interaction, and setting in their new study "Experimental assessment of phonetic register variation in situated interaction" www.jbe-platform.com/content/jour...

📢Just out! In a new paper "Sensitivity towards Registers in Czech: A Forced-Choice Study", A. Marklová, C. Demian, R. Meyer, L. Szucsich, & O. Buchmüller unite corpus linguistic and experimental methods targeting human perceptions of register-specific features. www.jbe-platform.com/content/jour...

💡 Call for Papers! 💡 Our journal Register Studies invites papers for a special issue entitled “Artificial Intelligence and Register Variation” edited by Tony Berber-Sardinha, critically examining the relationship between #AI and #register. 👉 See for further info: www.benjamins.com/series/rs/ca...

We explored how language shifts across gender, style, and register ✍️ With Dr. Marianna Grachova, we learned how Keyfeature analysis reveals the words and structures that make each variety stand out 🔍 #DHSS2025 #Linguistics #Sociolinguistics #LanguageVariation

What a great week it was!! Very sad that our summer school is almost over but very excited that we end it with a keynote by @mkschumacher.bsky.social 🤩 Mareike talked about corpus compilation and gender analysis in the #DH @dhssfau.bsky.social @dhregensburg.bsky.social

CliC, CliC, CliC...📚🖥 Participants learned a great deal by using a powerful digital tool like Clic to analyze #gender in #19th-century #fiction with concordance analysis, all run by Dr. Nathan Dykes @nfdykes.bsky.social. #DHSS2025 #DigitialHumanities #FAU #CliC

Our book 'Applying Corpus Linguistics to Illness and Healthcare' is out open access! We wrote it to share what we learnt in many years of research in @corpussocialsci.bsky.social, on topics such as communication about anxiety, dementia, cancer, obesity and vaccines. cambridgeblog.org/2025/08/appl...
