Meeting Description: 

Grammaticalization theory has been one of the most powerful frameworks of
non-formal grammar in the past two decades internationally and has also
increasingly engendered research in Japan in the past 10 or so years. Yet,
despite the exponential increase in published research, and a strong research
impetus originally coming from the study of African languages, main stream
understanding of grammaticalization processes is still tightly bound to
knowledge obtained from a very limited number of languages. However, studies
on grammaticalization in less-studied languages give us good reason to believe
that there are considerable differences in different types of languages
especially with respect to formal aspects of grammaticalization. At this
juncture, where grammaticalization research has greatly matured in general,
the opportunity is ripe to investigate this issue in more depth.
