Nearly 40 years after Charles J.Fillmore proposed that grammar is built from constructions form function pairings rather than abstract principles this approach continues to shape linguistic theory.

Remi's revisits this landmark idea, uncovering the deeper intellectual roots of Construction Grammar.

📘 New article by @remivantrijp.bsky.social 'A modern synthesis: The Fillmorean Construction and its Hidden Lineage'

Where do linguistic ideas come from, and how do they evolve?

🌱 How can tech help us care for plants?

Our team built a camera-robot that maps basil in 3D, detects key surfaces, and zooms in for close-up analysis with sensors.

A step toward sustainable, smarter plant care within the EU-funded #DREAM project.
