The proceedings of this year’s HPSG conference are now available! The volume includes a contribution by Hiwa Asadpour, Shene Hassan & Manfred Sailer on “Non-wh relatives in English and Kurdish: Constraint on grammar and use.” The paper is based on Shene’s work on relative clauses in English and Kurdish, Hiwa’s fieldwork on varieties of Kurdish, and Manfred’s work on non-at-issue meaning.
The proceedings contain a paper by Antonio Machicao y Priemer and colleagues on a related topic. They describe a method “Towards a treatment of register phenomena in HPSG.” The two approaches present interestingly different attempts to model linguistic variation in HPSG.
