This paper explores the complementary roles of bottom-up and top-down approaches in Basque terminology planning. It traces the evolution of language normalization efforts in Basque, emphasizing the institutional contributions of Euskaltzaindia, UZEI, and the Terminology Commission. While systematic terminology work methods are essential for expanding the use of Basque in new domains, corpus-driven descriptive approaches provide valuable insights into real term usage.

The proliferation of AI technologies has reinforced the importance of developing critical thinking skills. We propose leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs) to facilitate the generation of critical questions: inquiries designed to identify fallacious or inadequately constructed arguments. This paper presents an overview of the first shared task on Critical Questions Generation (CQs-Gen). Thirteen teams investigated various methodologies for generating questions that critically assess arguments within the provided texts.

We introduce a professionally translated extension of the TruthfulQA benchmark designed to evaluate truthfulness in Basque, Catalan, Galician, and Spanish. Truthfulness evaluations of large language models (LLMs) have primarily been focused on English. However, the ability of LLMs to maintain truthfulness across languages remains under-explored. Our study evaluates 12 state-of-the-art open LLMs, comparing base and instruction-tuned models using human evaluation, multiple-choice metrics, and LLM-as-a-Judge scoring.
