Meeting Description:

What: Classifiers are a characteristic feature of many Arawakan
languages. These morphemes categorize referents based primarily on
their physical properties such as shape or consistency. Numerous
Arawakan languages exhibit a complex system of multi-loci and
multifunctional classifiers. The talks during the workshop will
explore these classifier systems from various perspectives, covering
both the language family as a whole and specific Arawakan languages.

When: Monday, 9 September 2024, 09:40-17:00 CET

Where: Maison des Sciences de l’Homme, salle Elise Rivet, Lyon &
online

How: The one-day workshop is designed to bring together researchers
who are presently working on classifier systems in the Arawakan
language family and to encourage open discussions about the topic.

Interested people outside of Lyon are welcome to listen to the talks
and join the discussions online. Registration is free, but compulsory
to receive the videoconference links. Please find the detailed program
