I'm excited to speak about analyzing learner language using corpora at CALICOffee on Feb 20 at 1pm EST. Grad students interested in SLA and/or corpora are very welcome to attend this virtual talk 🤓 (link in the attached flyer; abstract in the comments)

Very happy to see our chapter out in the Oxford Handbook of Expressivity (Eds. Daniel Gutzmann & Katharina Turgay)! @niallrcurry.bsky.social, Emily Sharp, @gavinbrookes.bsky.social, @tonymcenery.bsky.social, and I discuss corpus approaches to analyzing expressivity.

Excited to see our chapter, Expressivity and Corpus Linguistics, led by @hankslizzy.bsky.social, with Emily Sharp, @gavinbrookes.bsky.social, & @tonymcenery.bsky.social out in the Oxford Handbook of Expressivity. In it, we show how corpus approaches can be used to study "linguistic" expressivity!

Excited to see this out! 'Applying Corpus Linguistics to Illness and Healthcare' - new #openaccess book, with @elenasemino.bsky.social @paulari.bsky.social @lukeccollins.bsky.social & @tonymcenery.bsky.social. @lancslinguistics.bsky.social www.cambridge.org/gb/universit...

Great plenary by @proftaylor.bsky.social and @journolinguist.bsky.social at #CL2025

Takeaway from @hankslizzy.bsky.social ‘s plenary @cl2025.co.uk 📚🎓 - Conversation is extremely heterogenous & broad, with situational characteristics more or less distinctive; thus, we need to quantitatively evaluate representativeness & use precise language to describe our sample #cl2025

Simply super talk by @hankslizzy.bsky.social #CL2025 taking us on a journey on the yellow brick road of corpus creation and representativeness by means of a reflection on prototypicality

“Any corpus is like the Emerald City - you need to go inside & poke around a bit” 🏰 In her plenary @cl2025.co.uk @hankslizzy.bsky.social takes us along the yellow brick road to LANA-CASE, tackling representativeness: what (register), who (demographics), and how (authenticity) 📚🎓 #cl2025

This morning I was honoured to give the opening plenary at the #CL2025 conference - thanks to everyone who came along and engaged!
