The 3rd paper related to my PhD is out! 🥳 It's published in Applied Corpus Linguistics and I explore a new way of combining corpus linguistics and cartography to profile (forensic) authorship, drawing on geolocated social media data to uncover regional language patterns. doi.org/10.1016/j.ac...

Excellent closing to the @24drdhum.bsky.social conference reflecting on digital humanities at this point in time and that language is not the same as data.

Last conference and last talk of the year back in Joensuu @24drdhum.bsky.social - some more forensic linguistics before the winter break. ❄️

Thank you for having me! Always excited to tell people about the cool stuff that‘s happening in FL 😊

We had the launch for the new dialect atlas on Swiss German – a 5y project that's now come to an end 🌟 We're thankful to the @snsf-ch.bsky.social and @unibern.bsky.social. The atlas can be bought here vdf.ch/dialaktatlas... but is also available as a free PDF from www.dialektatlas.ch #openaccess

If you want to hear Lucia and me talk about the CorGeS, join us later today :) Please note the trigger warning as we will be discussing suicide.

📣2nd Call for Papers: 17th Biennial Conference of the International Association for Forensic & Legal Linguistics (IAFLL). Cape Town, South Africa, 30th June- 4th July 2025. Deadline for abstract submissions 13 January 2025. iafll.org/2024/11/25/s...

Hello fellow forensic linguists, I thought I'd create a little space for us all. I'm new here so let me know if I've not seen you and need adding ❤️ go.bsky.app/Jtyb67V

Here’s what the other talks were about: Antti talked about the initial turns by the police (what are you supposed to answer when they say “Police!”?..) Helmi about the distinguishing features of texts written by human subjects and Gen Ai And Dana about geolinguistic profiling using Finnish Twitter

Many thanks to Dana Roemling and Helmi Siiroinen for organising a panel on forensic linguistics in Finland. Although I can hardly claim to be a part of the body of Finnish language researchers, it was great to hear about what others do and to share a bit of international experience #AFinLa

This is us being very happy about the positive feedback for our forensic linguistics panel at #afinla2024. We have some more plans for FL in Finland. And no, it’s not starting a metal band, even though we look like we had a panel dress code.

I’m in Tampere joining a criminology conference and telling people about forensic linguistics (in Finnish!) ☺️

Very excited to be co-hosting my first panel on forensic linguistics with Helmi Siiroinen at the autumn symposium of the Finnish Association for Applied Linguistics. We'll be joined by @anttikannisto.bsky.social and Daria Dayter @coocho.bsky.social. Looking forward to the discussions!

My article with @danaroemling.bsky.social is now available fully open access! Check it out for our thoughts on the difference between real law and pseudolaw and how to visualize the spatial distribution of features in corpus. #languageandlaw #pseudolaw #openaccess #forensiclinguistics

I've created a starter pack of linguists and language and law professionals who engage in #ForensicLinguistics research and analysis (and have provided expert evidence in court). As more move over to Blue sky, I shall add them. go.bsky.app/FkU9yMA

@danaroemling.bsky.social and I have an article coming out soon in The International Journal for the Semiotics of Law which addresses this very topic! I'll announce it here when it's available, but please to reach out to me if you're interested in the meantime. 3/4

Dana Roemling on Forensic Authorship Profiling using a geostatistical approach using the German Jodel corpus.
