DESCRIPTION:<p>Slurring Terms Across Languages (<strong>STAL</strong>) is an international and interdisciplinary network whose primary aim is to promote work on slurs\, pejoratives\, expressives and evaluative terms in general\, from languages that have been seldom discussed in the recent philosophical and semantic literature\, and in particular\, from sign languages and non-Indo-European languages. Its main aim is to bring to light new empirical data and uncover novel interesting phenomena that may have the potential to challenge current theories. Empirical studies of the expressions mentioned from such languages\, comparisons with English slurs\, as well as wider cross-linguistic approaches and developments of extant theories in application to the new data or previously neglected phenomena are encouraged too.</p>\n<p>The network's coordinators are&nbsp\;<strong>Isidora Stojanovic</strong>&nbsp\;(Pompeu Fabra University/CNRS-Institut Jean Nicod) &amp\;&nbsp\;<strong>Dan Zeman</strong>&nbsp\;(University of Porto). More information about the network and its activities can be found at&nbsp\;https://sites.google.com/view/stalnetwork. To contact the network coordinators\, please write to stalnetwork@gmail.com.</p>\n<p>The <strong>STAL Seminar</strong> features monthly\, online talks by researchers tackling issues&nbsp\;related to the study of slurs\, pejoratives\, expressives and evaluative terms in general\, from less studied languages. The meetings in the 2025-2026 academic year take place on <strong>MONDAYS\, 14:30-16:00 Central European Time (CET)</strong>.
