Functional approaches to linguistic change

Functional approaches to language aim to identify and explain the
sociocognitive and interactive factors that play a role in the use of language
as an instrument of communication. A major area in functionalist research is
linguistic change, the study of which has contributed to our understanding not
only of the entire complex of multi-level processes which constitute the
grammatical structure of a language, but also of the boundaries (often fuzzy
and imprecise) between the categories used in verbal interaction. The aim of
this thematic volume is to bring together papers offering functional
descriptions of linguistic change phenomena. The papers in question will be
either descriptive in nature, focusing on different levels of analysis
(phonetic-phonological, morphological, syntactic and/or semantic-pragmatic),
or may be written within any current functionalist theory, including
traditional approaches to grammaticalization and lexicalization, Usage-Based
Models and/or constructional approaches to linguistic change, Functional
Discourse Grammar, etc.

Issues related to this thematic volume: grammaticalization; lexicalization;
constructional changes; constructionalization; functional motivations for
linguistic change; sociocognitive mechanisms of linguistic change; etc.

Deadline for submission: April 30, 2022.
