Linguistic Field(s): Historical Linguistics; Semantics; Syntax; Typology
Meeting Description:
This workshop aims to bring together linguists working on discourse or modal
particles in any linguistically relevant field (diachrony,
semantic-pragmatics, syntax). Studies that look into the role particles play
in clause typing, as well as approaches that account for particles expressing
evidentiality, epistemicy and modality are welcome.
One of the goals of the workshop is to investigate the syntactic behaviour of
such particles, namely their syntactic nature, position and interaction with
other constituents. Additionally, this one-day workshop aims to provide an
opportunity to present and discuss the relation between discourse/ modal
particles and the formation of utterance meaning; we are particularly
concerned with those particles which, apart from occurring in declarative
contexts, are also used in questions.
Organizing committee: Arantzazu Elordieta, Xabier Artiagoitia and Sergio
Monforte.
This workshop is part of the project PGC2018-100686-B-I00 ‘Analysis of some
functional particles (modal, negative, complementizer) in Basque grammar’,
funded by Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation.
