The II International Conference on Verbal Humour<\/em> (#CIHV2024) will take place at the University of Alicante (Spain) from October 16 to 18, 2024. Sponsored by GRIALE (https:\/\/griale.dfelg.ua.es\/en\/home\/<\/a>) and the research projects PID2019-104980GB-I00 \u00abInteractional Humour in Spanish. Oral, written, and technological genres\u00bb (MCIN\/AEI\/\/10.13039\/501100011033) and PROMETEO\/2021\/079 \u00abPragmatic labelling for an observatory of identity of women and men through humour. The platform Observahumor.com\u00bb (Conseller\u00eda de Innovaci\u00f3n, Universidades, Ciencia y Sociedad Digital. Generalitat Valenciana), it is a magnificent opportunity to bring together international researchers of the highest level, focusing on verbal humour and its idiosyncrasy from diverse perspectives. Moreover, it is an excellent opportunity to share knowledge about the latest advances in linguistic humour and to strengthen new research networks among the various attendees or promote new ones.<\/p>\n

The GRIALE<\/a> research group at the University of Alicante, the event promoter, is the only research group dedicated to studying irony and verbal humour in Spain. Founded in 2002, it has participated in six R&D national projects, two Prometeo projects from the Valencian Community, and has received several grants from the University of Alicante. Its main objectives are the pragmatic analysis of irony and humour, the observation of socio-cultural issues (such as gender and its impact on irony and humour), the acquisition of humour in children, and the application of the results obtained from the teaching-learning of Spanish as a foreign language and to language disorders, especially those related to autism spectrum. In addition, the group has developed several humour corpora, which can be found on the OBSERVAHUMOR.COM platform.<\/p>\n

GRIALE has an internationally recognised reputation. Since it was founded in 2002, it has regularly organised several international meetings such as the following:<\/p>\n
