Terminology
Beginning with an overview of terminology, this work goes on to discuss the interdisciplinary nature of the field, the foundations of terminology, terminography, computerized terminology, terminology and standardization, and the role of terminologists in a language service,
Application-driven Terminology Engineering
A common framework under which the various studies on terminology processing can be viewed is to consider not only the texts from which the terminological resources are built but particularly the applications targeted. The current book, first published as a Special Issue of Terminology 11:1 (2005), analyses the influence of applications on term definition and processing. Two types of applications have been identified: intermediary and terminal applications (involving end users). Intermediary applications concern the building of terminological knowledge resources such as domain-specific dictionaries, ontologies, thesaurus or taxonomies. These knowledge resources then form the inputs to terminal applications such as information extraction, information retrieval, science and technology watch or automated book index building. Most of the applications dealt with in the book fall into the first category. This book represents the first attempt, from a pluridisciplinary viewpoint, to take into account the role of applications in the processing of terminology.
Multiple Voices in Academic and Professional Discourse
The demands of today’s society for greater specialization have brought about a profound transformation in the humanities, which are not immune to the competitive pressure to meet new challenges that are present in other sectors. Thus, lecturers and researchers in modern languages and applied linguistics departments have made great efforts to design syllabi and materials more attuned to the competences and requirements of potential working environments. At the same time, linguists have attempted to apply their expertise in wider areas, creating research institutes that focus on applying language and linguistics in different contexts and offering linguistic services to society as a whole.

Word-Formation
This handbook comprises an in-depth presentation of the state of the art in word-formation. The five volumes contain 207 articles written by leading international scholars. The XVI chapters of the handbook provide the reader, in both general articles and individual studies, with a wide variety of perspectives: word-formation as a linguistic discipline (history of science, theoretical concepts), units and processes in word-formation, rules and restrictions, semantics and pragmatics, foreign word-formation, language planning and purism, historical word-formation, word-formation in language acquisition and aphasia, word-formation and language use, tools in word-formation research. The final chapter comprises 74 portraits of word-formation in the individual languages of Europe and offers an innovative perspective. These portraits afford the first overview of this kind and will prove useful for future typological research. This handbook will provide an essential reference for both advanced students and researchers in word-formation and related fields within linguistics.

Mots nous en català / New words in Catalan
This is an innovative and distinctive comparative monograph about new word creation in the different varieties of Catalan. In eight chapters, it provides a panoramic analysis of the neologisms documented by the NEOXOC network. Each chapter is dedicated to the qualitative and quantitative analysis, as well as the comparative territorial analysis, of neologisms, differentiated by formation sources: suffixation, prefixation, neoclassical compounding, vernacular compounding and syntagmatic compounding, Spanish loanwords, English loanwords, truncation and semantic change. Two annexes contain the neologisms cited as well as a sample of the data collected by NEOXOC from a corpus during 2008-2010, t...
L'Argentera-- quan anàvem amb avarques
Aquest llibre parla de l'Argentera (Baix Camp) de mitjan segle XX a través de les vivències del seu autor. Josep Mèlich presenta un llibre de memòries sobre la seva infantesa i primers anys de joventut a l'Argentera, que li serveix per a descriure uns paratges i un estil de vida que avui gairebé ja han desaparegut. Parla de les famílies que hi vivien i de la seva procedència, de les cases, dels oficis i de les eines que s'utilitzaven, de les festes, del terme, de l'escola, dels estiuejants, de les expressions i de la parla pròpia del poble... L'Argentera... quan anàvem amb avarques és un llibre autobiogràfic de lectura atractiva, amb un llenguatge ric i ple de sentit de l'humor, on veurem reflectida la vida a pagès a la Catalunya de finals de la dècada dels quaranta, quan les espardenyes —avarques, a l'Argentera— encara eren el calçat més usat.
Phonetics and Phonology
The papers included in the volume "Phonetics and Phonology: Interactions and interrelations" are concerned with some of the multiple possible forms of interactions and interrelations in phonetics and phonology: the phonetic and/or phonological nature of speech patterns, segmental and prosodic interactions, and interactions between segments and features, both in child and in adult language, combining perception and production data, and doing so from theoretically as well as experimentally oriented perspectives. The book is unique in the universe of recent publications for its topic, wide scope and coherent thematic content. It is of interest to all researchers, teachers and students in the fields of phonetics and phonology as well as to those interested in the interplay between production and perception, the organization of grammar and language typology. In general, "Phonetics and Phonology. Interactions and interrelations" may be a useful companion to all those wishing to widen and deepen their knowledge of the sound structure of language(s).
Coneixement, llenguatge i discurs especialitzat
La xarxa temàtica Coneixement, Llenguatge i Discurs Especialitzat (XT99-00036, 2001XT-0032, 2003XT-00051) es creà l’any 2000 amb la finalitat de reflexionar sobre l’espai d’intersecció entre el coneixement, el llenguatge i el discurs especialitzat. L’objectiu principal de la xarxa temàtica és posar en connexió grups de recerca de diferents camps per fonamentar la reflexió interdisciplinària sobre el coneixement especialitzat i avaluar teories que donin raó de la producció lingüística en els àmbits especialitzats, sempre sobre bases gramaticals i psicosociològiques explícites. \nIntegren la xarxa els següents grups de recerca: MEDHISTERM (Universitat de València, Univ...
