[HPSG-L] Phraseology and Multiword Expressions: call for volume proposals

[Manfred Sailer]

Phraseology and Multiword Expressions (PMWE) is a book series at  
Language Science Press, a born-digital scholar-led open access  
publisher in linguistics.

The se­ries pub­lishes high qual­i­ty books about conventionalized,  
idiosyncratic combinations of words. Within the field of phraseology  
such word combinations are sometimes called phrasemes, while the  
computational linguistics community uses the term multiword  
expressions for them. Various subtypes of such word combinations are  
of interest, such as multiword compounds, multiword terms, multiword  
named entities, light verb constructions, phrasal verbs, idioms,  
collocations, formulaic speech, proverbs, etc.

The series is open to different approaches so as to create a forum for  
an interdisciplinary and cross-framework exchange of research results,  
including but not limited to the following subdisciplines:

- Computational linguistics and natural language processing
- Computer science
- Corpus linguistics
- Lexicography
- Psycholinguistics
- Theoretical linguistics

We welcome volume proposals addressing all topics related to  
theoretical, computational, and empirical approaches to phraseology  
including:

- Linguistic properties and typologies of multiword expressions,  
especially in multilingual frameworks
- Electronic lexical resources including multiword expressions
- Formal grammatical description of multiword expressions
- Parsing technologies including multiword expressions
- Identification and annotation of multiword expressions in corpora  
and treebanks
- Multiword expressions in machine translation and other multilingual  
applications

All contributions are welcome in English.
