Dear typologists,<br>
<br>
As was announced on Lingtyp earlier, there will be a workshop on <br>
<br>
<b>"Empirical consequences of universal claims in grammatical
theorizing"</b><br>
<br>
at the next DGfS Annual Conference (Hamburg, 4-6 March 2020).<br>
<br>
I have just posted a blogpost that gives some background on the
motivation for this workshop:<br>
"How can we understand Human Language if we don’t know all
languages?"<br>
