Prof. Emmanuelle Labeau

Ravie d'organiser le colloque 2025 de @AFLSnews avec Anne Dister. Invitation cordiale : afls2025.sciencesconf.org

Le comédien et metteur en scène Christian Labeau est décédé à l’âge de 71 ans rtbf.be/article/le-com…. Un autre Labeau amoureux de la langue qui s'en va. Au revoir, cousin !

Ravie d'avoir été élue présidente du comité de recherche de l’Association for French Language Studies @AFLSnews et de pouvoir enfin me réinvestir dans la promotion de la recherche en linguistique française. RV au congrès 2025 en Belgique !

A very different skyscape from the new office window

@MichelleMacleo4 Thank you @MichelleMacleo4 ! It has all gone very quickly but it is a wonderful and unexpected opportunity...

@elabeau Emmanuelle - I missed your news. Congratulations on your appointment and move. Hope all goes brilliantly for you 💐

Greetings from Belgium where I am progressively emerging from my summer move and getting back to all things linguistic ! Some light work I did during the somewhat chaotic start of 2024: shorturl.at/pC6Zc

@TimothyELDougl1 Ik zal voltijds professor in de synchrone franse taalkunde zijn: spannend!

@elabeau Geweldig! Wat ga je in Antwerpen doen?

Today was my last day at Aston University. I came as a graduate colloquial ass. (sic, the title was too long for the column on the staff list) for 9 months... in 1995. I am grateful for the many wonderful people I met over the years who have made me who I am...

@K_Pilch Thank you, Katy. Best of luck for the future!

@elabeau Congratulations Emmanuelle, all the best for the future :)

@medinaraquelun1 I will, Raquel! To the good old times!

@elabeau Enjoy your new job and life!

@IlariaScaglia1 Thank you, Ilaria! You are definitely one of the wonderful ones. Please let me know if you come to Belgium😘

@elabeau You will be greatly missed Emmanuelle. Thank you for everything you have done for students, colleagues, languages... for a better place and world for us all.

@timgrant123 You are a very difficult act to follow, Tim! You are everything an academic should be: a curious researcher and an enthusiastic teacher. Don't change a bit x

Now time for packing. Back in the game mid-September from Belgium. Tot ziens!

... and even for the few as*****s who taught me what not to be. Thank you @AstonUniversity for the many opportunities and for the preparation for my chair in French Synchronic Linguistics at the University of Antwerp

@lovermob @AstonUniversity Congrats!

Very happy to share that my application for promotion to Senior Lecturer in English Language and Linguistics @AstonUniversity has been approved, effective 1st August. Very grateful to all who have supported and mentored me along the way!

Great fun to be interviewed as Parent Governor + motherly pride for my son's articulate explanation of the value of multiculturalism and multilingualism! Where does that come from?!?😜

@AIFL_Aston Well done, Liubov!

Massive congratulations to Liubov Green, who has passed her PhD viva with minor corrections at AIFL today. Her dissertation, supervised by Krzysztof Kredens, is an ethnographic study on the role and professional identity of court interpreters in England and Wales.

Well done to @UoBSchool, where I am parent governor, on this wonderful award! A well deserved recognition of the UobS staff's (with special mention for the legend @KevC46 🤡) dedication
