Linguistic Field(s): Syntax 

Meeting Description: 

This workshop is an annual event on the inquiry of Formosan languages from a 
Minimalist viewpoint. The theme of this year workshop is ‘infinitive’. While 
finiteness is one of the core issues in syntax, it receives very little attention in the 
Formosan literature, let alone its subtype ‘infinitive’. This workshop aims to fill the 
gap. We invite generative Formosanists who have been either working on 
finiteness or related issues for years to present their recent findings on the 
issues. Moreover, for a broader perspective, we happily invite Susanne 
Wurmbrand, who is a leading expert and publishes widely on infinitives in 
Germanic languages.
