Workshop description:
We are delighted to announce that the 8th edition of Experimental and
Corpus-Based Approaches to Ellipsis (ECBAE) will take at the
Hohentübingen Castle, Tübingen, Germany, on 19-20 August 2026. The
workshop brings together researchers using empirical methods to
investigate ellipsis and related phenomena across languages. It will
provide an opportunity to discuss how corpus-based and experimental
approaches can advance our understanding of how various components of
grammar and dis-course interact to license ellipsis or constrain its
distribution. While the focus is on corpus-based and/or experimental
(cross-linguistic) research, this year we also welcome contributions
on ellipsis and related topics that adopt other methodologies,
including relying on informally collected, introspected judgments.
Keynote Speakers:
 - Anikó Lipták
 - Anne Abeillé
 - Benjamin Bruening
 - Richard Stockwell
Call for Submissions:
We invite abstracts for oral presentations (20 minutes + 10 minutes
for discussion). We accept submissions on any theoretical / formal
aspect of ellipsis. Abstracts, including references and data, must not
exceed two A4 or letter pages, have 2.54 cm (1 inch) margins on all
sides, and be set in Times New Roman with a font size no smaller than
11pt. Examples, tables, graphs, etc. must be interspersed into the
text of the abstract, and not collected at the end. The submission
must not reveal the identity of the author(s) in any way. Submissions
are limited to two per author, with at most one paper being
single-authored. Abstracts must be submitted in PDF format to
claudia.heberle at uni-tuebingen.de. Please provide your name and
affiliation in the body of your email.

Notification of acceptance: by the end of April 2026
Registration closes: 01 July 2026
