@bfbeekhuizen gave a fascinating talk on #colexification and discursive variation, based on the #DoReCo multilingual corpus
@annadinatale131 gave a dazzling talk on the mathematical properties of #colexification networks today at #iclc16 🤩
@annadinatale131 @maxp_e @dgarcia_eu closed off our theme session with a talk on *Network Science of Cross-Linguistic Colexifications*
As part of #ICLC16 workshop on #colexification organised by @AnnikaTjuka & Mattis List, I just proposed a new concept: #dialexification, the case when different meanings are attached to the same cognate set. Presented the soon-to-be released #EvoSem database of dialexifications
In the #ICLC workshop on colexification, Alexandre François (with Siva Kalyan) presents EvoSem, a new database of the diachrony of lexical semantics (and coins the new term "dialexification"). @aAlexF_languages

Martin @haspelmath gave an excellent talk today on Coexpression and Synexpression in language. Part of a workshop on lexical semantics — one of two workshops at #ICLC16 almost entirely dedicated to studies in #colexification 🙂
🅰️🅱️ What do #SentimentAnalysis and #OpinionResearch have in common? In many cases the same starting point: a #wordlist. @annadinatale131 and @dgarcia_eu at @CSHVienna have now developed a better way to create them.

A fantastic talk by Prof. @gemmaboleda of @putaupf, on #colexification at @abralin_oficial covering almost anything discussed in her paper jointly by Prof. Thomas Brochhagen also of @putaupf (Link to the paper and the author's webpages can be found in the comments). 1>11 🧵
New words on words? #colexification
By mapping the meanings of the words used to communicate emotions across more than one-third of the planet’s spoken languages, a study in Science found that there is significant variation in how emotions are expressed across cultures. #ScienceMagArchives https://t.co/s6U7vrx5kp

In this talk, Gemma Boleda presents evidence that universal principles shape the lexicons of natural languages in a large-scale cross-linguistic study of lexical ambiguity.

Check out this beautiful thread by #CSHVienna's @annadinatale and her recent paper on #colexification!
We analyse a word network, the one determined by #colexification, and find that words cluster on the basis of their valence, arousal and dominance.
Cool new study on #colexification of emotion of words across 2427 languages. High variability overall but more similarity in languages with georgraphical proximity. Can we assume that the same ratings of emotion concepts hold cross-culturally, though?
An amazingly ambitious paper examining emotion concepts in thousands of languages by a stellar team @josh_c_jackson @ka_lindquist @SimonJGreenhill @joseph_watts @lingulist @xrotwang in @sciencemagazine https://t.co/BEyj3iXPhb
Colexifications are when one word has multiple meanings, such as the Japanese ashi, meaning both foot and leg. @chrzyki et al present a #colexification database of across #languages, along with tools, guidelines & a @CodeOceanHQ capsule for testing.

Interesting #colexification study of words describing #Emotion
Emotion words differ in valence & don't translate well to other languages
Study implies culturally evolved conceptualizations & biologically evolved physiology @sciencemagazine https://t.co/8jp21qRbxb
