Meeting Description:

These two relatively large groups show some common features: they are highly
frequent, they are commonly used in interaction and they are prone to deal
with (inter)subjectivity. The main aim of this conference is to delve into the
pragmaticalization of thought and speech verbs in order to shed light on the
main tendencies shown by the languages of the world and to try to establish
some shared trends across languages and language-families.


2nd Call for Papers:

Reminder — CFP: 
We are pleased to announce the conference Verbs of thought and speech:
pragmaticalization paths across languages that will be held in the University
of Salamanca on September 7th – 9th 2022.

While potentially any linguistic item is subject to change, some seem to
present a higher tendency to do so. That is the case of verbs of thought and
speech, which usually develop pragmatic uses: you know, I’m telling you, etc.

These two relatively large groups show some common features: they are highly
frequent, they are commonly used in interaction and they are prone to deal
with (inter)subjectivity. The main aim of this conference is to delve into the
pragmaticalization of thought and speech verbs in order to shed light on the
main tendencies shown by the languages of the world and to try to establish
some shared trends across languages and language-families.

Topics may include, but are not limited to: 

Typological approaches to the pragmaticalization of verbs of thought and
speech 
Contrastive analysis in different languages 
Diachronic studies on specific languages 
The emergence of discourse markers out of verbs of thought and speech 
Subjectivity and intersubjectivity at play: thinking and speaking as
