Meeting Description:

The Center for Research in Terminology and Translation (CRTT) of the
University of Lyon is organizing an international conference on neology in
specialized languages which will take place in Lyon on 2-3 July 2012. The
aim of the conference is to bring together linguists interested in
discussing the following aspects of neology in specialized communication:

- The methods and tools which are used to detect new terms and concepts
- The importance of written and oral corpora to detect new terms
- The methods and tools which are used to measure and evaluate the
implantation of new terms in a specialized language and their circulation
to other specialized languages
- The influence of language policies on the implantation and circulation of
neologisms
- The diachronic evolution of neologisms
- The treatment of neologisms by general-purpose and specialized
dictionaries

We are pleased to announce that Kyo Kageura, from the University of Tokyo,
and Jean Quirion, from the University of Ottawa, have accepted our
invitation to give keynote presentations at the conference.
