<span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:12.0pt;font-family:"Times New Roman","serif"">Cross-linguistic studies of adjective acquisition are crucial to our understanding of the relation between language and cognition, since the adjective category is not universal
and reveals a lot of cross-linguistic variation. However, relatively little attention has been given to the acquisition of the adjective category in languages beyond English and to cross-linguistic comparisons in this domain. This workshop aims to bring together
experts in the field of adjective learning from different countries – who rarely meet due to being geographically scattered – and thereby stimulate collaborative projects in this area.

monolingual and bilingual, first and second language acquisition. Papers on cross-linguistic comparisons are particularly welcome. Abstracts should not exceed 500 words (excl. references) and should be submitted as e-mail attachments (MS Word, rtf) to Elena
