<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">In many languages grammatical relations are to some extent lexically restricted, in the sense that certain verbs or verb classes take different
argument coding frames than others. While such constraints are well studied for “non-canonical” case marking (e.g. Tsunoda 1985, Aikhenvald et al. 2001, Bickel et al. 2014, Malchukov & Comrie 2015), they have also been reported for grammatical relations defining
other types of constructions, including a range of voice- and valency-related constructions (</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">e.g. Polinsky 2013, Vigus 2018, Olthof et al. 2020, Say forthcoming)</span><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">,
as well as some clause-combining constructions. To illustrate the latter, the split-S alignment pattern in Acehnese main clauses is also relevant for control constructions (Durie 1987), while in Chickasaw lexical restrictions on agreement in main clauses do
not carry over to the switch-reference system (Munro & Gordon 1982). <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">Having limited applicability, lexical restrictions can be said to be disadvantageous from a processing perspective, since they increase, potentially
even multiply, the number of rules of a language. Yet many languages seem to have lexical restrictions in one way or another. This raises questions about why these restrictions should exist in the first place, and about why, how, and where they persist in
languages. Shedding light on these issues requires not only a cross-linguistic understanding of lexical restrictions in language use, but also thinking beyond the linguistic system proper. This includes addressing questions about the cognitive nature of lexical
restrictions, e.g. about their role in language processing or language acquisition, but also about their cultural-historical behavior in different genealogical and areal contexts.

<p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align:justify"><span lang="EN-US" style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">With this workshop, therefore, we aim to stimulate the conversation between different (sub)disciplines, bringing together descriptive, comparative,
corpus-based, and experimental studies, as well as multi-disciplinary studies that compare linguistic data with genetic and/or socio-historical evidence. In sum, we welcome contributions that address, among others, the following questions:<o:p></o:p></span></p>
