New Book Releases

The Journal of Linguistics (SLOVKO 2025) – The special issue of the journal contains papers from the 13th edition of the international conference SLOVKO 2025 – Natural Language Processing and Corpus Linguistics. The papers presented at the conference reflect the methodological diversity of corpus research. Topics include the design and construction of specialized corpora, the analysis of corpus data, questions of representativeness and annotation, the automation of corpus processing, and its application in empirical research. As the articles in this year’s special issue of the Journal demonstrate, corpus linguistics has long transcended purely linguistic research. Its overlap with areas such as mathematical linguistics, digital humanities, computer science, pedagogy, and media and communication confirms that it is a discipline that brings together diverse research traditions while offering new tools for analyzing linguistic phenomena. The latest special issue of the Journal of Linguistics not only reflects the results of the international SLOVKO 2025 conference, but also follows up on a long-term efforts to promote scientific dialogue in the field of language technologies.
