<p class="MsoNormal"><b><span lang="EN-US" style="font-size:10.5pt;font-family:"Arial",sans-serif;color:black;background:white">Dissecting Morphological Theory 1: Diminutivization Across Languages and Frameworks</span></b><b><span lang="EN-US"><o:p></o:p></span></b></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">The workshop is organized within this year’s SLE conference (its workshop 9), and is the first of a series of workshops that challenge morphological theory with data from diminutivization and address three basic issues
of diminutive morphology: A. Demarcation, B. Status in grammar, and C. Theoretical description.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US"><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><span lang="EN-US">Diminutive(-related) meanings and forms have received much attention in the literature (overview in Grandi & Körtvelyessy 2015) and some authors have claimed that we cannot account for peculiarities of diminutives with
the regular mechanisms of grammar but need an additional component: evaluative morphology (Scalise 1986), morphopragmatics (Dressler & Merlini-Barnaresi 1994). Do we? Or is everything a matter of method (Jurafsky 1996)?<o:p></o:p></span></p>
