Research Unit on (Experimental) Syntax and Heritage Languages at the

Variation and Migration at the University of Potsdam, will organize a one-day
workshop on ''Language Comparison and Typology: German and the Mediterranean
Languages''. The Workshop will be hosted by the Humboldt University Berlin

The focus of the workshop is led on contributions from a variety of
theoretical and methodological approaches on German and/or the Mediterranean
languages.
The general aim is to bring together researchers interested in contributing to
deeper and more systematic descriptions and theoretical modeling of
empirically oriented comparative and typological studies on morphology and
syntax, semantics and pragmatics, corpus linguistics, historical linguistics,
language variation and language acquisition on Language Comparison and
Typology of German and/or the Mediterranean languages.
The Workshop will bring together established and early-career scholars who are
interested in topics such as:
- NPs (bare nouns, mass nouns, cognates)
- V2 and Word Order Variation
- Formulaic Language
- Psych Verbs
- Space and Time
