Funded Activity Summary

Lexical typology, a new integrated approach to semantics: a reciprocal case study. This proposal will bring out Professor Leila Behrens (U. Cologne), one of the co-founders of a new approach to linguistics, Lexical Typology, which looks at how all of a language's expressive components interact, instead of just focussing on one element such as grammar or vocabulary. With the CI she will develop this theory further, with respect to the expression of reciprocal relationships in English, German, Hungarian, Tagalog, Vietnamese, Indonesian, and the Australian Aboriginal languages Kayardild, Bininj Gun-wok and Dalabon.
