Meeting Description: 

WAASAP is an international Workshop series celebrated biannually that focuses
on the aspect and argument structure of adjectives and participles and adverbs
and prepositions. In the time of its existence, it has developed into a
referential forum of discussion of the theory of predicative non-verbal
categories. Past editions have taken place at the University of Greenwich
(2012), The Artic University of Norway at Tromsoe (2014) and The University of
Lille 3 (2016).
  
The different topics that we want to discuss include but are not restricted to
the following:

- Aspect: the syntax and semantics of paths, scales and part/whole relations
- The syntax and semantics of possession
- The relationship between prepositions and applicative heads
- The syntax and semantics of participles
- Auxiliary selection across languages and its relation with participles
