the exchange and discussion of linguistic phenomena and their
theoretical implications. We invite proposals based on any formal

Formal Semantics, Distributed Morphology, HPSG, among others) used for
the analysis of linguistic phenomena at different grammatical levels
(syntax, semantics, pragmatics, morphology, phonology, language
acquisition, and interface studies).

Grant Armstrong, University of Wisconsin – Madison
