Books: Mood Alternations: Montero Estebaranz (2026)
This book investigates Polarity Mood (PM) in Peninsular Spanish and how the phenomenon has evolved diachronically. In particular, it explores from a theoretical and empirical perspective the interaction of PM with five other linguistic phenomena: (i) the verb class of the matrix predicate, (ii) the presence of a first-person subject; (iii) the type of matrix clause, (iv) information structure, and (v) the presence of Negative Polarity Items. Drawing inspiration from the competing grammars framew

Books: Current Insights into Code-switching: Kašćelan, del Carmen Parafita Couto, Webb-Davies, Pérez-Tattam, Stadthagen-González (eds.) (2026)
This volume presents a series of studies and reviews that provide insights into grammatical variation and the development of code-switching in neurotypical speakers, as well as into language mixing practices among individuals with neurodevelopmental conditions. Across seven chapters, a range of themes is explored, including: community norms and language practices, the influence of caregivers on bilingual development, attitudes and ideologies surrounding bilingualism, code-switching as a communic

Books: Identity Formation, Language and Migration Dynamics: Gholami and Mehlem (eds.) (2026)
The volume examines migration from the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region to the German diaspora, offering a multifaceted perspective that combines historical and contemporary insights. It moves beyond viewing migration as a momentary event, instead situating it within a broader narrative that considers the impact of origin countries. By studying communities such as Georgians, Jews, Aramaic speakers, Kurds, Afghans and Berbers, the book explores how linguistic, social, and cultural facto

Books: The Austronesian Languages of Eastern Indonesia and Timor-Leste: Grimes and Edwards (2026)
For 150 years there has been a question over how the Austronesian languages of eastern Indonesia and Timor-Leste fit into the Austronesian world. The area is severely under-documented. There has been no consensus on the classification of these languages, and scholars admit to being perplexed. This is the first systematic attempt at subgrouping the whole region based on historical phonology, supplemented by morphosyntax and the lexicon. Insights from archaeology, DNA studies, and awareness of lon

This geographical spread has led to considerable dialectal fragmentation, with substantial differences between the peripheral dialects, not least due to differential contact influence.

Die vorliegende Arbeit untersucht das Framing von Extremismusvarianten im medialen Diskurs der Jahre 1999 – 2021 und entwickelt eine corpus-driven Methode zur Erschließung und Visualisierung semantischer Frames. Sie verbindet Frame-semantische Theorie nach Busse mit Methoden und Annahmen der distributionellen Semantik und entwickelt ein Verfahren, um diskursives Wissen aus der musterhaften Verteilung von Wörtern in Korpora induktiv zu rekonstruieren.

The three-volume work Negation in the world's languages constitutes a major step forward in the comparative study of negation. It includes 43 chapters describing the negation system of one language each, following a typologically and functionally oriented questionnaire. The questionnaire is a comparative tool organized according to functional subdomains of negation. It highlights aspects of negation that have been found salient in typological research, such as standard negation, negation in non-

Books: Gender-fair Language in Translation and Post-editing: Lardelli (2026)
Machine Translation (MT) models knowingly suffer from gender bias, especially for genders beyond the binary. Since issues of non-binary representation and language use are still often neglected in both Translation Studies (TS) and MT, this book investigates the translation and post-editing of gender-fair language beyond the binary in a process and product-oriented study. Twelve language professionals were recruited and asked to either translate or post-edit three brief English texts into German.

Books: Teaching Translation in the Age of Generative AI: Penet, Moorkens, and Yamada (eds.) (2026)
Since the launch of OpenAI’s ChatGPT in 2022, generative artificial intelligence (GenAI) has started reshaping what it means to work as a professional translator in an industry that is becoming increasingly automated. This prompts us to interrogate, once again, the role and agency of human translators in the translation process or, in other words, the intrinsically human value and values they add to it. A natural corollary is that GenAI forces us translator educators to (re-)interrogate what we

This book investigates the development of indefinites like cualquiera in European and Argentinian Spanish, tracing their path from modal meanings like free choice and random selection to evaluative and even pejorative uses. Drawing on corpus data, variation across dialects, and formal semantic tools, the study probes how transparent these shifts are and what they reveal about the mechanisms of meaning change. The findings will interest linguists working on indefinites, variation, or the interfac
