The International FrameNet Workshop 2023: Cognitively Grounded Approaches to Applied Language Description, collocated with ICLC 2023, in Düsseldorf, Germany, aims to broaden the scope of previous instances of IFNW, by looking into the diversity of cognitively inspired approaches to applied language description, their organization as analytical frameworks and their contributions in informing linguistic theory. IFNW 2023 follows from four previous editions, one in 2020, held online, one in 2018, held in Miyazaki, Japan, one in 2016, held in Juiz de Fora, Brazil, and one in 2013, held in Berkeley, USA.

Call for papers

Since the 1980's, cognitively grounded approaches to language have been applied to analyses of diverse language phenomena in multiple languages and in interface with several other scientific fields. In the course of those four decades, such approaches have grown into cohesive descriptive models, which are fed by theories of linguistic cognition and feed them back as well. Examples include framenets, constructiCons, MetaNet, computational grammars, etc.

In the 2023 edition of the International FrameNet Workshop, collocated with the International Cognitive Linguistics Conference, we aim to broaden the scope of previous instances of IFNW, by looking into the diversity of cognitively inspired approaches to applied language description, their organization as analytical frameworks and their contributions in informing linguistic theory. This session welcomes papers reporting on cognitively inspired approaches to the following topics:

• lexicography

• constructicography

• grammaticography

• multilingual, contrastive and/or comparative language description

• multimodal communication

• digital resources and applications

• translation and translation technology

Submission guidelines

Abstracts should not exceed 500 words (excluding examples and references). Author names should not appear anywhere in the text (you may cite yourself as [Author] or in the third person for previously published work). Please copy & paste the abstract text into the Easychair window. A PDF file is optional at this stage. If you want to include figures or graphics, feel free to upload the abstract as a PDF and write “see pdf” in the abstract window. Theme session authors should make sure to note the title of the theme session at the top of their abstracts. References should be formatted according to the Unified Style Sheet for Linguistics Journals.
