*Approaches to Complex Predicates (ACP2013)
*

CALL FOR PAPERS
Deadline: * 16 December 2012*

Complex predicates can be loosely defined as a sequence of items that
behave as a single predicate, projecting a single argument structure within
a clause. Each of the members of the predicate contributes part of the
information ordinarily associated with a single head.

Complex predicates are of various types and are found in typologically
different languages. They give rise to important empirical and theoretical
issues cutting across various subfields of linguistics, such as:

- Syntactic and semantic modeling of complex predicate formation:
compositionality, argument structure, event structure, etc.
- Typological issues in complex predicate formation
- Resemblances/dissemblances between syntactic and morphological processes
of lexeme formation: idiomaticity, semantic groupings, lexicalization,
analogical formation, exemplarity, etc.
- Production and processing of complex predicates: storage vs. online
processing, acquisition, etc.
- Complex predicates and multiword expressions

The purpose of the conference is to bring together those working on complex
predicates in different perspectives and with a variety of approaches.
