Linguistic Field(s): Linguistic Theories; Morphology; Semantics; Typology 

Meeting Description: 

The Conference concentrates on two areas of research into word-formation: word-formation theories and word-formation typology/universals. While papers discussing any theoretical as well as cross-linguistic aspects of word-formation are most welcome, the focus of the Conference will be on semantic aspects of complex words in both subareas of the Conference.
