This week's lab blog post (https://sharetigr.usi.ch/en/news/feeds/38556) recalls the #COVID19 pandemic. It affected our data collection and is the topic of several semi-guided interviews that are part of the #corpusTIGR. #openscience

#IPrA2023 panel about #corpuslinguistic approaches to #epistemic and #evidential marking in #talkininteration I co-organized together with Jérôme Jacquin. Thanks to all participants! I learnt a whole lot about lexical evidential and epistemic expressions in Galician, Italian, and French, about untranslatable English 'last I checked' constructions, about corpus workflows for "ich weiss nicht" in spoken German, about how to annotate evidentiality in earnings conference calls, and about how wh-placement with situational verbs in French interrogatives is related to evidentiality. The panel was also a good occasion for the InfinIta project team to present our annotation scheme in the making, which will allow us to get a quantitative overview over evidential resources in the #corpusTIGR of spoken Italian.
