Exciting news! 🎉 I just got a @dfg.de grant award for answering 3 #HOWs:

-“how” our brains process communicative functions,
-“how”we get what others mean, “how”fast it happens, and
-“how” this can feed back into theories of language and mind.

Can’t wait to start it! 😊🥳

🔊 New paper on #pragmatics!
Rising or falling nuclear accentual movement on the sentence-final word is the key #prosodic cue for distinguishing questions from statements in Italian.

The Dahlem Center for Linguistics is the new Interdisziplinäres Zentrum Europäische Sprachen 🤩

We’ll be launching this exciting new chapter of linguistics at Freie Universität Berlin (@freieuniversitaet.bsky.social @berlinualliance.bsky.social) with an inaugural symposium on 20 June 2025.

👉Excited to give this talk focus ing on

“when” and “where” speech acts are processed in the brain and

“how” neural evidence can inform back linguistic-pragmatic theory.

Come by if you are around! Looking forward to the discussion!💬😊

Psycholinguistic Databases, Stimuli, Utilities — Concepts & Cognition Laboratory

It's that time again to update the lab's psycholinguistic database page. Lmk if you have any suggestions for stuff I've missed or sections to add (NLP, aphasia, discourse). Any suggestions for improving this hub would be most appreciated. www.reilly-coglab.com/data
