Reminder: CfP for DGFS-AG Intensivierung/Intensification
by Brunner 28 Jul '25

28 Jul '25

We would like to remind you of our call for the DGFS workshop "Intensification". The deadline is this Friday,*1. August 2025*. <english version of the call below> Call for Abstracts für die AG "m e e e e e e g a g e i l e Muster von InTeNsIvIeRuNG!!11elf 😎🤩" im Rahmen der *DGFS 2026, 24.-27.02.2026 in Trier* https://www.uni-trier.de/universitaet/fachbereiche-faecher/fachbereich-ii/f… Deadline: *1. August 2025* Die AG widmet sich der formalen und funktionalen Vielfalt von Intensivierung, z.B. welche Strategien und Konstruktionen in sprachlichen Ausdrücken verwendet werden, in welchen Kontexten sie auftreten und welche semiotischen Elemente intensivierbar sind. Das Spektrum umfasst nicht nur lexikogrammatische, sondern auch darüberhinausgehende Phänomene auf allen kommunikativen Ebenen, z.B. typographische und lautliche Mittel oder Gestik und Mimik, als Formen der Intensivierung (Napoli/Ravetto 2017). Ein besonderes Augenmerk gilt der Musterhaftigkeit und Kreativität von Intensivierungsstrategien. Während sich bestimmte Verfahren als konventionalisierte Muster beschreiben lassen, sind andere höchst variabel, für Innovationen anfällig und kombinierbar (Cotgrove 2025). Dies wirft theoretische und empirische Fragen nach dem Verhältnis von Konvention und Variation auf: In welchem Maße folgen Intensivierungen wiederkehrenden Form-Funktions-Mustern (Politt/Willich 2024)? Welche Formen der Variation (sozial, stilistisch, medial) lassen sich beobachten, und wie sind diese zu beschreiben? Wir freuen uns auf einen Austausch zu einem Phänomen, das an der Schnittstelle von Lexik, Phonetik/Phonologie, Grammatik, Pragmatik und Semantik liegt. Willkommen sind aktuelle Arbeiten, die sich mit empirischen Untersuchungen zu spezifischen Intensivierungsstrategien befassen sowie mit der Rolle von Intensivierung in unterschiedlichen Diskursen, Genres, Modalitäten oder Varietäten. Ebenfalls von Interesse sind Arbeiten, die sich mit der Frage auseinandersetzen, wie sich von der empirischen Analyse ausgehend theoretische Modelle sprachlicher Intensivierung entwickeln lassen – und umgekehrt, wie theoretische Konzepte die empirische Analyse leiten können. Abstracts in englischer oder deutscher Sprache von höchstens einer Seite Länge (DIN A4, 12pt, 1,5-zeilig) können bis zum 01.08.2025 als nicht anonymisierte PDF-Datei an cotgrove(a)ids-mannheim.de gesendet werden. *Organisationsteam*: Annelen Brunner (IDS Mannheim), Louis Cotgrove (IDS Mannheim), Katja Politt (Universität Bielefeld, SFB 1646), Alexander Willich (HHU Düsseldorf) *Literaturverzeichnis* Cotgrove, L. (2025): 😡👉👎👈: Entstehende Arten von Intensivierung in der digitalen Kommunikation junger Menschen. In: Deutsche Sprache 1/2025, 2–18. Napoli, M./Ravetto, M.

Yearbook of the German Cognitive Linguistics Association, 12(1), 3-34. https://doi.org/10.1515/gcla-2024-0002 ---------------- Call for Abstracts for the workshop "s u u u u u p e r awesomepatterns of iNtEnSiFiCaTiOn!!11eleven 😎🤩" taking place at *DGFS 2026, 24.-27.02.2026 in Trier, Germany* https://www.uni-trier.de/universitaet/fachbereiche-faecher/fachbereich-ii/f… Deadline: *1. August 2025* The workshop focuses on the formal and functional diversity of intensification, e.g. which strategies and constructions are used in linguistic expressions, in which contexts do they occur, as well as which semiotic elements can be intensified. Intensification is far more diverse than just lexicogrammatical phenomena, with phenomena occurring on on all communicative levels, for example, typographical and phonetic strategies, gestures or facial expressions (Napoli/Ravetto 2017). Particularly of interest for the workshop is the apparent dialectic between recurring patterns and innovation within intensification strategies. While certain processes can be described as conventionalised patterns, others can be highly creative and combined with one another (Cotgrove 2025). This raises theoretical and empirical questions about the relationship between convention and variation: To what extent do intensifications follow recurring form-function patterns (Politt/Willich 2024)? What forms of variation (social, stylistic, medial) can be observed and how can these be described? We look forward to discussion on a phenomenon that lies at the crossroads of lexis, phonetics/phonology, grammar, pragmatics and semantics. We welcome recent work that deals with empirical studies on specific intensification strategies and the role of intensification in different discourses, genres, modalities or varieties. Papers that address how theoretical models of linguistic intensification can be developed on the basis of empirical analysis and conversely, how theoretical concepts can guide empirical analysis, are also welcomed. Abstracts should be in German or English and should not exceed a single A4 page (12pt, 1.5 line spacing). Please submit the abstract as a PDF (anonymisation not necessary) by *1st August 2025*to cotgrove(a)ids-mannheim.de. *Organisation*: Annelen Brunner (IDS Mannheim), Louis Cotgrove (IDS Mannheim), Katja Politt (Universität Bielefeld, SFB 1646), Alexander Willich (HHU Düsseldorf) *References:* Cotgrove, L.

Final Call for papers: Ethical LLMs 2025
by Dola Mullage, Damith (Postgraduate Researcher) 26 Jul '25

26 Jul '25

Ethical LLMs 2025: The first Workshop on Ethical Concerns in Training, Evaluating and Deploying Large Language Models<https://sites.google.com/view/ethical-llms-2025> @ RANLP2025<https://ranlp.org/ranlp2025/> Final Call for papers: Scope Large Language Models (LLMs) represent a transformative leap in Artificial Intelligence (AI), delivering remarkable language-processing capabilities that are reshaping how we interact with technology in our daily lives. With their ability to perform tasks such as summarisation, translation, classification, and text generation, LLMs have demonstrated unparalleled versatility and power. Drawing from vast and diverse knowledge bases, these models hold the potential to revolutionise a wide range of fields, including education, media, law, psychology, and beyond. From assisting educators in creating personalised learning experiences to enabling legal professionals to draft documents or supporting mental health practitioners with preliminary assessments, the applications of LLMs are both expansive and profound. However, alongside their impressive strengths, LLMs also face significant limitations that raise critical ethical questions. Unlike humans, these models lack essential qualities such as emotional intelligence, contextual empathy, and nuanced ethical reasoning. While they can generate coherent and contextually relevant responses, they do not possess the ability to fully understand the emotional or moral implications of their outputs. This gap becomes particularly concerning when LLMs are deployed in sensitive domains where human values, cultural nuances, and ethical considerations are paramount. For example, biases embedded in training data can lead to unfair or discriminatory outcomes, while the absence of ethical reasoning may result in outputs that inadvertently harm individuals or communities. These limitations highlight the urgent need for robust research in Natural Language Processing (NLP) to address the ethical dimensions of LLMs. Advancements in NLP research are crucial for developing methods to detect and mitigate biases, enhance transparency in model decision-making, and incorporate ethical frameworks that align with human values. By prioritising ethics in NLP research, we can better understand the societal implications of LLMs and ensure their development and deployment are guided by principles of fairness, accountability, and respect for human dignity. This workshop will dive into these pressing issues, fostering a collaborative effort to shape the future of LLMs as tools that not only excel in technical performance but also uphold the highest ethical standards. Key Dates Submissions Open - 1st June 2025 Paper Submission Deadline - 28th July 2025 Acceptance Notification - 10th August 2025 Camera-Ready Deadline - 20th August 2025 Submission Guidelines We follow the RANLP 2025 standards for submission format and guidelines. EthicalLLMs 2025 invites the submission of long papers, up to eight pages in length, and short papers, up to six pages in length. These page limits only apply to the main body of the paper. At the end of the paper (after the conclusions but before the references) papers need to include a mandatory section discussing the limitations of the work and, optionally, a section discussing ethical considerations. Papers can include unlimited pages of references and an unlimited appendix. To prepare your submission, please make sure to use the RANLP 2025 style files available here: * Latex<https://ranlp.org/ranlp2025/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/ranlp2025-LaTeX.zip> * Word<https://ranlp.org/ranlp2025/wp-content/uploads/2025/05/ranlp2025-word.docx> Papers should be submitted through Softconf/START using the following link: https://softconf.com/ranlp25/EthicalLLMs2025/ Topics of interest The workshop invites submissions on a broad range of topics related to the ethical development and evaluation of LLMs, including but not limited to the following. 1. Bias Detection and Mitigation in LLMs Research focused on identifying, measuring, and reducing social, cultural, and algorithmic biases in large language models. 2. Ethical Frameworks for LLM Deployment Approaches to integrating ethical principles—such as fairness, accountability, and transparency—into the development and use of LLMs. 3. LLMs in Sensitive Domains: Risks and Safeguards Case studies or methodologies for deploying LLMs in high-stakes fields such as healthcare, law, and education, with an emphasis on ethical implications. 4. Explainability and Transparency in LLM Decision-Making Techniques and tools for improving the interpretability of LLM outputs and understanding model reasoning. 5. Cultural and Contextual Understanding in NLP Systems Strategies for enhancing LLMs’ sensitivity to cultural, linguistic, and social nuances in global and multilingual contexts. 6. Human-in-the-Loop Approaches for Ethical Oversight Collaborative models that involve human expertise in guiding, correcting, or auditing LLM behaviour to ensure responsible use. 7. Mental Health and Emotional AI: Limits of LLM Empathy Discussions on the role of LLMs in mental health support, highlighting the boundary between assistive technology and the need for human empathy.
