It’s so sad to see that many bright minds in Iran will face even more challenges getting the opportunity to work and collaborate in international research. The path to staying connected was already hard, and unfortunately, these new restrictions on TOEFL and Duolingo will make it even harder.

We are looking for Dutch-speaking participants for a short 5-minute survey! We're studying how people evaluate utterances about others - no previous knowledge required! www.soscisurvey.de/evaluation_d... Linguists are kindly asked to share, but not to take part!

Why do some word combinations sound natural, while others feel slightly “off”? In this second episode, we explore collocations—the typical word pairings that shape how language feels natural to us. Using CLiC, we show how such patterns can be identified and explored in real texts.
