Fifth Globalex Workshop on Lexicography and Neology, 2023

GWLN-5 @ ASIALEX 2023, Seoul

Main theme: Unregistered Words

 

Background

GWLN-5 – the fifth edition of Globalex Workshop on Lexicography and Neology (GWLN) – will be held in conjunction with the 16th International Conference of the Asian Association for Lexicography, Asialex 2023, at Yonsei University, Seoul, Korea on June 23, 2023.

The aim of the GWLN series is to bring together cross-world views combining detection, classification, description and evaluation methods of neologisms with their lexicographic processing and representation for different languages. GWLN takes place annually, with support of the Global Alliance for Lexicography (Globalex), alternating in conjunction with the international conferences of the continental associations for lexicography.

The main theme of GWLN-5 is unregistered words, i.e., lexical items not registered in dictionaries, including – but not limited to – words and expressions found in speech corpora, social media, hate speech, poetry, etc., or simply non-standard words or newly coined terminology. In addition, other papers discussing any pertinent issue related to neologisms – including new words, new multiword units, new elements of word formation, and new meanings of any of these – in the context of lexicography and dictionaries are also welcome.

All the submissions must highlight the connection between neology and lexicography and will be peer-reviewed by two members of the Review Committee. The workshop proceedings will be published as a special issue of Lexicography. Journal of Asialex (Issue 10.2, December 2023).

Abstracts including 1,000 words should be submitted to https://easychair.org/conferences/?conf=gwln5.
