GaC is a vibrant international forum for research that connects corpus linguistics and the study of grammar – both understood very broadly.

Presentations at GaC investigate grammatical phenomena based on corpora, report on corpus compilation and annotation, or discuss corpus-linguistic methodology for the study of grammar – or possibly something entirely different within the overall conference theme.

That’s where you come in.

The main goal of the GaC conference series is to explore ways in which corpus-linguistic methods can inform our understanding of the grammars of human languages.

As such, we welcome submissions that connect grammar and corpora in any possible way.

There will be no conference fee for students (including PhD students) and for participants from lower-income countries. We will announce in September whether there will be a small fee for other participants (depending on the outcome of our funding applications).

The main goal of the GaC conference series is to explore ways how corpus-linguistic methods can inform our understanding of the grammars of human languages. As such, we welcome submissions that connect grammar and corpora in any possible way.

For GaC11, we particularly encourage submissions within the following focus areas:

• Corpus-based morphosyntactic typology
• Compilation and annotation of corpora for low-resource languages
• Individual differences and group-specific variation in corpus data

We can accommodate a limited number of theme sessions. If you would like to organize a theme session, please submit a proposal (max. 1 page A4 incl. references) to the Organizing Committee (gac2027@hhu.de) by July 1, 2026. The selection of theme sessions will be announced by July 20.
