By contrast, lexico-semantic phenomena have, with a few exceptions (e.g. Matisoff 2004, Enfield 2003, Smith-Stark 1994), received remarkably little attention from areal linguistics and areal typology, and little is known about the geographical variation they display. The talk will advance the discussion on lexico-semantic phenomena showing parallels across languages and how these similarities may be described and accounted for \u2013 by universal tendencies, genetic relations among the languages, their contacts and\/or their common extra-linguistic surrounding.<\/p>\n<p>The study of lexical phenomena is of course well-established in research on language contact. Areal lexico-semantics (Ameka &amp; Wilkins 1996, Koptjevskaja-Tamm &amp; Liljegren 2017), by contrast, is concerned not with the way words move from language to language, but with the diffusion of semantic features across language boundaries in a geographical area. In the talk we will primarily focus on the general organization of a lexical field, polysemy (colexification) patterns and lexical motivation, collocational patterns etc., keeping in mind that areal lexico-semantics is a potentially vast field, spanning the convergence of individual lexemes, through the structuring of entire semantic domains to the organization of complete lexicons.<\/p>\n<p>Maria Koptjevskaja Tamm (Stockholm University) &#8211; October 25th 2017 (11-12.30 AM)<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"c404152a7583008e8\" class=\"panel-collapse collapse in\">\n<div class=\"panel-body toggle-content\">\n<p>R100 (Place du 20-Ao\u00fbt, 7, 2nd floor \u2013 4000 Li\u00e8ge)<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Areal typology of lexicon-semantics Morpho-syntactic and phonological features are regularly used by linguists to establish the [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"template":"","meta":{"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","footnotes":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[88],"class_list":["post-12567","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","hentry","tribe_events_cat-conference","cat_conference"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/12567","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/12567\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":12568,"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/12567\/revisions\/12568"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12567"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12567"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/web.philo.ulg.ac.be\/linguistique\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=12567"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
