We invite papers presenting constructionist approaches to various linguistic phenomena, from theoretical and/or applied perspectives, in the form of oral presentations (20 min. plus 5 min. discussion) or posters. Please submit your abstracts by January 17th, 2024, to EasyAbs (https://easyabs.linguistlist.org/submit/ICCG13). Authors may (co-) submit at most two abstracts, either one single-authored paper and one co-authored one (not as first author) or two co-authored papers (at most one as first author).
Abstracts should not exceed 400 words (excluding references) and should clearly state research questions, approach, method, data and (expected) results.
