In the past few decades, and since Kratzer鈥檚 seminar work in the later 70s Kratzer (1977, 1981, 1991), the phenomenon of modality has received substantial attention in linguistic theory鈥� especially in formal semantics and the syntax- semantics interface, and recently also in experimental semantics-pragmatics (e.g. Phillips and Knobe (2017); Liu et al. (2021)). Modality generally refers to the expression of a speaker鈥檚 reduced commitment towards to the truth of the propositional content (De Haan

Call for Papers: Meeting Description: Tense and Aspect are fundamental categories in the architecture of grammar. Both situate eventualities in time, but they do so in different ways: tense anchors the time of the event deictically to the time of the utterance, yielding present, past, or future distinctions, either directly or through the mediation of a reference time (Comrie 1985, Bybee 1992). Aspect, on the other hand, refers to the internal temporal constituency of the event, encoding d

Digital transformations are profoundly affecting research practices in the humanities and social sciences (HSS). Massive access to heterogeneous corpora, the rise of computational methods and computing resources, the widespread use of data infrastructures, and the proliferation of collaborative tools are transforming the ways in which knowledge is captured, produced, analysed and shared. These transformations are enabling the development of new research methodologies and contributing to the deve

SUMMARY The idea of modeling language as a dynamical system is not new, but it has not caught on widely. With this entry in the Cambridge Elements series, Edgar W. Schneider draws attention to how concepts of complex dynamic systems theory can be used to better understand language, particularly the varieties of English spoken around the world. In keeping with the scope of the Elements series, the book is very short, only 85 pages including the references. It consists of six chapters: four

I teach an undergraduate course entitled 鈥淚ndigenous languages: their past, present, and future,鈥� with 鈥渇uture鈥� referring to ongoing processes of revitalization, reclamation, and change.

My students express interest in transnational p

How are invented languages created? Artificially constructed languages ('conlangs') shed light on how we can apply the universal principles of language to produce whole new languages. Grounded on world building and linguistic typology, this engaging book provides a step-by-step guide to language invention, introducing the basic blocks of language building (such as sounds, morphemes and sentence structure) and demonstrating their use in both natural languages from English to Swahili, and invented

Australian languages form a large genetic group with many interesting and distinctive phonological and morphological properties. Written by two experts in the field, this is the first book-length treatment of this topic, providing an in-depth discussion of a wealth of little-known data on the sound systems and word structures of Australian Indigenous languages. It includes a critical evaluation of theoretical approaches from the 1950s up to the current day, including recent experimental, psychol
