2nd NegLaB Workshop (NegLaB II)
The NegLaB II Workshop aims to advance our understanding of how the expression of negation is cross-linguistically associated with grammatical and non-linguistic cognitive operations. We aim at determining whether the set of operations observed in negative utterances is part of negation itself or, rather, arises as an effect of the grammatical system and cognitive functions.
We welcome contributions on phenomena related to negation (in particular the three issues outlined below) across all areas of linguistics (syntax, semantics, pragmatics, phonology and morphology) as well as other domains (language acquisition, psycholinguistics, historical linguistics and multilingualism). The full call for papers can be found here.
Abstracts can be submitted to neglab.crc1629@gmail.com until the 15th of October 2025. Notification will be provided on November 1st. Every talk will be allotted 40 minutes in total (30 minutes talk + 10 minutes discussion).
