Due to confusion of events and places, I am re-posting the 3rd CFP of 
the workshop *Dissecting Morphological Theory 3: Diminutivization, 
Allomorphy and the Architecture of Grammar (DMTD3).*

This workshop is related to *IMM,* not to MMM, and will take place in 
*Budapest*, not in Bucharest (the host of SLE 2022). The abstract 
submission deadlines for IMM (& DMTD3 workshop) and MMM are very close 
and both meetings are indeed devoted to morphology but IMM and MMM are 
completely different events. Additionally, IMM and SLE have the same 
abstract submission deadline (15 January 2022) but Budapest and 
Bucharest are two different cities in two different, though neighboring, 
countries.

If you have any problems to meet the abstract submission deadline for 
this workshop (15 January 2022), please do not hesitate to contact the 
workshop organizers, their e-mails are listed below.

> Diminutive morphology presents a number of challenges to morphological 
> theory and various issues have been discussed extensively: whether 
> diminutivization is derivation or inflection (Dressler 1989; Scalise 
> 1988; Stump 1993; Manova 2011; Grandi & Körtvélyessy 2015); are 
> diminutive suffixes heads and/or modifiers (Wiltschko and Steriopolo 
> 2007; Steriopolo 2009, 2015, 2016; Gouskova & Bobaljik, to appear); do 
> they attach "low" or "high" in the syntactic tree (De Belder et al. 
> 2014; Cinque 2015); which meanings are associated with diminutive 
> morphology (Dressler & Merlini Barbaresi 1994; Jurafsky 1996) and so 
> on. Nevertheless, there are still issues that have remained unaddressed:
>
>  1. Why do some languages have large sets of diminutive affixes, while
>     others have very limited sets?
>  2. What is a diminutive allomorph? (Should allomorphs have the same
>     semantic-pragmatic function, e.g. could they have different
>     readings, either positive or negative, depending on the situation?
>     Should allomorphs be associated with the same inflection class?
>     Should allomorphs have the same syntactic function: are they
>     either heads or modifiers or could they be both; could they attach
>     at different "heights" in the syntactic tree, resulting in "high"
>     vs. "low" allomorphs?)
>  3. How does allomorph selection take place in diminutivization? (Is
>     it based on semantics, on form, on syntactic structure, on
>     linearization, or on extragrammatical information?)
>  4. Are gender and inflection class encoded in the same way in
>     diminutive and non-diminutive nouns? (If diminutive affixes impose
>     gender and inflection class, what does this mean for our
>     understanding of the morphology-syntax interface?)
>  5. What architecture of grammar best captures the peculiarities of
>     diminutive morphology?
>     (a) Phonology after morphology, i.e. morphologically conditioned
>     phonology (and consequently phonology-free syntax)
>     (b) Phonology before morphology, i.e. phonologically conditioned
>     morphology (and maybe also syntax)
>     (c) A mixture of (a) and (b).
