For Rabbit Day, the first of the month — 🐇 🐇 🐇 — and as a Mary, Queen of Scots, cry that I am Not Dead Yet (things have been very bad, though inclined to great pain and disability rather than intimations of mortality), this announcement — of a workshop and then a cool-sounding research project — from Maia Ponsonnet on the Variationist list in e-mail on 9/26:
On 21 Nov, Maia Ponsonnet, Aimée Lahaussois, and Yvonne Treis are convening a one-day workshop entitled “Typologizing Interjections”.
The workshop will take place from 9am to 5pm CET, in Lyon (Dynamique du Langage), and via Zoom
Context: This workshop is the first step of a [CNRS: Centre national de la recherche scientifique] research project on the typology of interjections. The broader project aims to publish an open-access edited volume, featuring a larger number of descriptive contributions on the semantics and functions of interjections in individual languages across the world. To start this scientific conversation and launch joint research efforts, we propose a one-day workshop, accessible in hybrid mode
