Had the pleasure of presenting findings from the completed #FDF2 project and fresh insights into my current #ILFACT project in beautiful Prague last month at the Learner Corpus Research conference ✨ And of course it was wonderful to be reunited with my dear colleague Sandra! @utu.fi #FlowLangGroup

What a great first day at the @eurosla.bsky.social conference! Thank you to everyone who came to hear about mine and Loulou Kosmala’s work with the #ILFACT project data. Great questions and discussion!
