Dear HISTLING members,

Abstract submission is now open for a new article collection on “The 
Evolution of Meaning: Challenges in Quantitative Lexical Typology”. This 
Frontiers Research Topic will deal with the evolution of word meaning 
from various perspectives, with a focus on quantitative and 
computational models and their advantages and shortcomings for assessing 
general trends in the evolution of meaning. We especially welcome 
quantitative research from a diachronic angle, including 
cross-linguistic research and studies of semantic change within a single 
language. All research will be published Open Access. We additionally 
aim to put together a free eBook of all published manuscripts to provide 
an up-to-date and comprehensive overview of the latest research 
developments in the field.

You can find a full description of the article collection here:

<http://fron.tiers.in/rt/38650>

The deadline for abstract submissions is the 31st of July 2022; and the 
deadline for manuscript submissions is the 30th of December 2022, but we 
can accommodate extensions for both on a case-by-case basis. Please do 
not hesitate to reach out to us.

Please note that publishing fees are applied to accepted articles, but 
the team at Frontiers is happy to advise you in this regard. You can 
reach out to our dedicated point of contact at Frontiers, Rose
