Meeting Description:
The workshop addresses naming strategies and word formation in a contrastive perspective.
Second Call for Papers
It is widely assumed in morphological theory that word formation is a device for creating names whereas the function of syntax is to describe entities. Compounds, being part of word formation, are often thought to have a classificatory meaning and therefore a naming function. However, it is by no means the case that all entities that we might like to name are denoted by a compound, because there are many syntactic constructions which obviously function as names. The focus of this workshop is on compounds and corresponding syntactic constructions with regard to the naming function.
Abstracts should not exceed 500 words of text (excluding references). Abstracts should be submitted electronically to the following address: namingstrategiesniederlandistik.fu-berlin.de
Submission deadline: March 31st, 2008. Notification of acceptance: May 15th, 2008.

The LINGUIST List is under the umbrella of Eastern Michigan University and as such
can receive donations through the EMU Foundation, which is a registered 501(c)
Non Profit organization. Our Federal Tax number is 38-6005986. These donations
can be offset against your federal and sometimes your state tax return (U.S. tax
payers only). For more information visit the IRS Web-Site, or contact your
financial advisor.
Many companies also offer a gift matching program, such that they will match any
gift you make to a non-profit organization. Normally this entails your contacting
your human resources department and sending us a form that the EMU Foundation fills
in and returns to your employer. This is generally a simple administrative procedure
that doubles the value of your gift to LINGUIST, without costing you an extra penny.
Please take a moment to check if your company operates such a program.
Thank you very much for your support of LINGUIST!
