The theme of the conference is ‘Morphology and Semantics’. The relationship between form and meaning is a central topic of morphological research. It is of central relevance for our view of the architecture of grammar, the nature of morphological generalizations, and the structure of the lexicon. More specific issues are the systematicity in the interpretation of compounds, the polysemy and/or homonymy of affixes, the role of paradigmatic relations in the semantic interpretation of complex words, bracketing paradoxes, and semantic compositionality at the level of the word.
In addition, there will be a special section devoted to the morphology of Croatian. It is also possible to submit an abstract on other morphological topics, for which a number of slots will be reserved in the program.
