Meeting Description:

In the past couple of years paradigmaticity in word-formation has attracted
admirable attention. Two workshops at the 49th SLE meeting - Paradigms in
Word-Formation: New perspectives on data description and modeling and
Similarities and differences between inflectional and derivational paradigms:
individual languages and beyond - and ParadigMo 2017 - First Workshop on
Paradigmatic Word Formation Modeling - in Toulouse, France testify to the
growing interest towards the nature and role of paradigms in the field of
word-formation. At the center of discussions it is essentially paradigms in
(affixal) derivation, but compounding is not entirely excluded.

The literature devoted to the topic is constantly growing, e.g., Bauer 1997;
Bochner 1993; Booij 1997; Pounder 2000; Roché & Plénat 2014; Štekauer 2014;
van Marle 1985; Stump 1991, 2006; to name but a few. However, the issues and
questions surrounding the similarities and differences between derivational
and inflectional paradigms are far from conclusively answered and the debates
are open to debate as regards the psychological reality and predictability
strength of paradigms in the area of word-formation. Having in mind the
unsettled controversies as to the boundaries between inflection and
derivation, it is only natural that studying and modeling paradigms in
word-formation will generate sustained and deeper interest. 

This workshop's major objective is to provide venue for discussion of the
concept of paradigm in word-formation, novel approaches to understanding and
modeling the phenomenon, recent findings (including in separate languages)
concerning the role of paradigms in lexical networks and how the former
(re)shape the patterns of the various  relations that words have with the
others in the lexicon.

Relevant questions include, but are not restricted to the following:

- How are analogy and paradigms related?
- What is the nature of the interaction between derivational families and
paradigms or between word nests and paradigms?
- Are paradigms operative in compounding?
- Are there any differences between paradigms in compounding and derivation?
- Does the concept of paradigm necessitate reevaluation of the demarcation
between inflection and derivation or the nature of the interaction between
affixation and compounding?
- How can we account for the inherent overlaps and partiality in networks
projected by paradigmatic structures?, etc.


Call for Papers:

Abstracts for papers should be anonymous, 500 words in length (excluding
references, but including tables) in both word (Times New Roman, 12 pts.) and
pdf format and should be sent to abagasheva at gmail.com and
jesusferdom at gmail.com by 15 February 2018.
