Meeting Description:

The Conference is one of a series of conferences on discourse markers
in Romance languages (Madrid, 2010; Buenos Aires, 2011; Campinas,
2012; Heidelberg, 2015; Louvain-la- Neuve, 2017; Bergamo, 2019;
Craiova 2022) and aims to build on the previous events, serving as a
platform for internationally renowned linguists and young researchers
alike to exchange views and ideas and to broaden their research
perspectives.
This Conference’s theme will deal specifically :
a)     with  interactions between DMs and their explicit/implicit
context, overcoming the traditional divide between their textual and
interpersonal functions;
b)     with the subjective adjustment function of DMs.

Researchers on discourse markers in Romance languages are invited to
submit contributions on these topics, as well as on related subjects
including (but not restricted to):

- definition of the discourse marker category;
- lexicons of discourse markers;
- discourse markers and their relation to other pragmatic categories;
- syntax-prosody-discourse interface;
- sociolinguistic approaches to discourse markers;
- variation of discourse markers across registers, languages and
language varieties;
- translation studies;
- L1 and L2 acquisition of discourse markers;
- diachronic studies;
- experimental studies;
- corpus-based and computational studies;
- applied studies (business language, legal discourse, educational
settings, etc.).
