The 8th edition will address topics related to oral communication and plurilingualism. In contexts characterised by territorial multilingualism and\/or increasing levels of linguistic diversity, language manifests itself as a complex dialogical process involving multiple resources \u2013 registers, varieties, and discourses \u2013 which speakers select to engage in processes of meaning-making, identity negotiation, and to act upon their realities. With this in mind, we welcome contributions that deal with orality and spoken language, focusing in particular on oral communication in connection with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">communicative acts within a specific genre of private or institutional communication, e.g., family talk, communication at school and university, with public authorities, medical practitioners, etc.;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">the linguistic features of spoken language from a phonetic-phonological, lexical, morphological, syntactical, pragmatic, or interactional point of view; this may also include the contrast between different languages and varieties or between spoken and written languages;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">the teaching and learning of oral competences in formal and informal contexts;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">the positioning of speakers from a sociolinguistic or variational linguistic perspective;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">translanguaging and mediation practices among plurilingual speakers in private or institutional settings;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">oral communication and spoken language in experiences of mobility and migration;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li style=\"font-size:16px\">methodological, epistemological and\/or ontological challenges in research on oral communication and spoken language.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Different languages and varieties in the Alpine region will provide the focal points of the workshop; however, the workshop is also open to related topics and projects, including overarching dimensions such as language ideologies and Artificial Intelligence in connection with spoken language and orality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Conference venue:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Academy of German-Italian Studies, Villa San Marco, Merano\/Meran (Italy)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keynote speakers:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Katrijn Maryns (Universiteit Gent)<br>Fabiana Fazzi (Universit\u00e0 Ca\u2019 Foscari Venezia)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Submission of abstracts:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">If you are interested in presenting your research project at the workshop, submit your anonymised abstract of max. 500 words (references excluded) via&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/lt.eurac.edu\/lri26\/conftool\/\">ConfTool<\/a>. <br><s>Deadline for abstract submission:&nbsp;<strong>15th January 2026<\/strong><\/s><br><strong>Extended deadline for abstract submission: 1 February 2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">All dates at a glance:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-layout-grid wp-container-core-group-is-layout-baef362d wp-block-group-is-layout-grid\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-container-content-5e2576f9\" style=\"font-size:16px\"><strong><s>15.01.2026<\/s><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-container-content-5e2576f9\" style=\"font-size:16px\"><s>Abstract submission deadline<\/s><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-container-content-5e2576f9\" style=\"font-size:16px\"><strong>01.02.2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-container-content-5e2576f9\" style=\"font-size:16px\">Extended abstract submission deadline<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center wp-container-content-5e2576f9\" style=\"font-size:16px\"><s>01.03.2026<\/s> <strong>13.03.2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Notification of acceptance<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:16px\"><strong>01.05.2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Preliminary programme of the workshop<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center\" style=\"font-size:16px\"><strong>11-12.06.2026<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Workshop dates<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Presentation types:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">Oral presentation (20 minutes speaking time plus 20 minutes discussion time), poster presentation (including 3 minutes teaser presentation).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Workshop format:<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:16px\">The aim of the workshop is to facilitate constructive discussion of the projects presented.
