@AdamCSchembri I did think it was really pushy this time, with the constant text messages. I was told they would stop after I confirmed I voted with the online form, but they did not. You should at least give members the option to opt out altogether if they want to.

I've added new distributional semantic models trained on word2vec for nouns, verbs, and adjectives to my OSF repository https://t.co/M47RsV9692 Also trained on COCA and COHA, they perform better than the older 'bag-of-words' models I used earlier. Have fun!

All set for my keynote @gac2022 ! Thanks so much to the organisers for their kind invitation!! @Eng_Lang_UoB

Alternatively, if you know of non-CxG studies that nevertheless report results compatible with construction grammar (or even better, that have already been interpreted in this way), I'd love to hear about them too!

[Florent Perek @FlorentPerek]

Hi Twitter, I'm looking for references to construction grammar studies using experimental methods (preferably psycholinguistic) on languages other than English. I'd be grateful if you could point me to anything of that sort from your or others' work, thanks!

@RachelHatchard @MMUHPSC @SLTatBCU @Nicholasgroom Woohoo, congrats! 🎉

@dagmardivjak @mbgantwerp @srbdts @RemivanTrijp @lauren_bliksem @evaeva_z @BodoWinter @JWGrieve @LauRomain I think it's already been mentioned, but there's a whole body of research using DSMs/word embeddings/vector-space models that is probably worth mentioning. I have some UB work myself applying the approach to the study of the productivity of constructions.

[Ling&Comm@UoB @Eng_Lang_UoB]

Please hold on just dealing with some technical issues!

Such an important thought and so nicely visualized: the rainbow of open science from @MichaMahlberg #CLSS2021

[CCR @CCR_UoB]

In the Sinclair Lecture on Thursday, @dagmardivjak will be addressing the question: do the patterns we find in corpus data with the help of statistical techniques exist in the minds of language users? Please register for the event here:

Closing date 13 June 2021

And please let us know if you have any questions!

[Florent Perek @FlorentPerek]

I've made the distributional semantic models used in my work on syntactic productivity available in an OSF repository: https://t.co/M47RsV9692 Long overdue (and they might be somewhat outdated) but hopefully they can still be useful!

[Florent Perek @FlorentPerek]

If you are wondering about the early findings of our English Constructicon project, I gave an online lecture last December in CogniTextes

[Florent Perek @FlorentPerek]

@AdamCSchembri Exactly. It’s a public service, not a charity

[Florent Perek @FlorentPerek]

@AdamCSchembri So did they publish the letter? (The letter ends by asking for it)

[Florent Perek @FlorentPerek]

@AdamCSchembri Sounds like something someone would write fifty years ago, when corpus linguistics was still controversial..
