Dear all,

Simone Mattiola and I are currently working on a typology of verbalizers
based on a 220-language sample. We are focusing on denominal verbalizers,
but other types are also taken into account. We have presented some
preliminary results at the last SLE meeting, and the hand-out is available
from my Academia page at the following address:
https://www.academia.edu/51120616/A_typology_of_denominal_verb_formation

Hope this helps,
Best,
Andrea
