The main a focus is on techniques of analysis and documentation of spoken language, but this is not the exclusive field of attention, and a fairly wide range of topics and methodologies of current interest to participants, as well as guest lectures, will be offered. Particular attention is paid to the presentation of work by participants in preparation for examinations, theses, and conferences.
The Colloquium is open to advanced students of English Linguistics and General and Computational Linguistics who are interested in improving their knowledge of research methods and results in the field, and in presenting their own ideas, problems and results. Interested colleagues and participants from all linguistic sub-disciplines are also most welcome.
