incremental acquisition of lexical categories<br>
emergence of morphological structure<br>
modelling lexical memories<br>

frequency-based models of lexical productivity<br>
word encoding<br>
models of lexical architecture<br>
family-based effects in word processing<br>
word reading and writing<br>

<br>
distributional semantics<br>
interpretation of compounds<br>
concept composition and coercion<br>
conceptualisation of perception and action<br>
time and space in the lexicon<br>
