Résumé :

The Collaborative Research Center 1629 “Negation in Language and Beyond” (NegLaB) at the Universities of Frankfurt, Tübingen and Göttingen reminds interested colleagues that the submission deadline for NegLaB III is approaching. The workshop will be held at the University of Frankfurt on 1–2 December 2026.

NegLaB III aims to advance our understanding of how the expression of negation is cross-linguistically associated with grammatical and non-linguistic cognitive operations. We welcome contributions on phenomena related to negation across all areas of linguistics (syntax, semantics, pragmatics, phonology, morphology) as well as language acquisition, psycholinguistics, historical linguistics and multilingualism. Submissions addressing the workshop’s three thematic domains are especially encouraged: (A) the syntax–semantics interface of negation, (B) negation’s interaction with other grammatical categories, and (C) processing and cognition.
