Meeting Description:

The First Theoretical and Experimental Linguistics Workshop at KRE (KRE-TEL-WS-2023)

The Theoretical and Experimental Linguistics Research Group at Károli Gáspár University of the Reformed Church in Hungary (KRE) is launching a new series of workshops. KRE-TEL-WS-2023 will be the first event in the series. The Workshop welcomes talks on theoretical or experimental research (and, ideally, even combinations of the two) in any area of linguistics and in any theoretical framework. One of the goals of the workshop is to promote interaction and collaboration among researchers working in these two main fields of linguistics.
There will be general and thematic sessions, and a poster session. The general and thematic sessions will involve 30-minute talks (25 min + 5 min discussion). Presentations can focus on results from completed as well as ongoing research. They should describe original, unpublished work.

Call for Papers:

THEMATIC SESSIONS
We welcome proposals for thematic sessions (e.g. argument structure, ChatGPT, child language, code-switching, discourse functions, inflection, experimental approaches, lexicography, partitives, predication, translation, etc.). The deadline for proposal submission is 15 June. Notification of thematic session acceptance: 30 June. The convenor of an accepted thematic session will be responsible for inviting abstract submissions to the session. Thematic session abstracts will undergo the same refereeing procedure as general session abstracts.
