Fantastic Friday news from rainy Vienna! Our co-authored article "Who are the users in multilingual digital humanities?" is now available in Digital Scholarship in the Humanities! Beside conceptual considerations about the multilingual DH user community, the article also offers actionable steps towards stronger language inclusivity. https://academic.oup.com/dsh/advance-article/doi/10.1093/llc/fqaf091/8263225?utm_source=advanceaccess&utm_campaign=dsh&utm_medium=email

@ElenLeFoll Yes, the music was awesome!

It was also nice to hear from Eva Martha Eckkrammer that #DigitalHumanities has a well-etablished and innovative role within the #Romanistik, a strength to maintain into the future.

I agree that the voice of Romance Studies, with their experience of #multilingualism, #diversity, #contextualization and #comparison, is vital for the future development also of #DigitalHumanities methods, including but not limited to #LLMs.

Currently at the #Romanistiktag #RT25 in #Konstanz, Germany!

We started off our 3-day track on "Digital Approaches to Historical Corpora" with a wonderful keynote by @glennroe.

Glenn introduced the #ModERN project and reported on recent developments regarding the annotation of instances of text reuse in a new interface they built for this purpose. Neat!

All about the track: https://www.romanistiktag.de/xxxix-romanistiktag/sektionen/sektion-10/

Talks in German, French, Italian and Spanish! #multilingualism #romanistik @romanistikde

#introduction post for my linguistics account, updated as of 2025:

Hi! I'm Daisy, I have my MPhil in theoretical #linguistics from UiT, the Arctic University of Norway. I am academia adjacent and greatly displeased.

My research interests are (adult) second/third/nth #languageAcquisition, #multilingualism and #multilectalism, #nativelanguages, and language revitalization. I'm primarily into #syntax.

My main account is @theklokwerkparallel where I'll probably talk about more general things!

Tres personas caminan en Los Angeles y hablan de la situación política hoy en los Estados Unidos. Un homme demande aux autres, "Est-ce que c'est nécessaire à porter ma carte de l'identité qui confirme que je suis citoyen?" Eine Frau sagt, "Ich habe meine immer dabei. Man weisst ja nie,

Cada vez más me da grima y frustración que la Unión Europea use el inglés como lengua principal.

Porque es como privilegiar un idioma sobre los demás. Lo mismo podría decir del francés, alemán u otros idiomas si estuvieran en su lugar (incluido el castellano, mi idioma materno junto al gallego)

¿Porque no hablamos en nuestros idiomas (nacionales y locales) para poder escuchar y conocer otros idiomas europeos, mientras utilizamos traductores para entendernos?, pregunto.

También me gustaría que nos comunicaremos con interlenguas como los pidgins o criollos, o lenguas auxiliares similares al interlingua,con características comunes y sencillas de las lenguas europeas.

Y el inglés se limitara a las relaciones con gente y paises angloparlantes, y lo utilizan como segundo idioma.
