LAST MINUTE CONFERENCE
Alexis Wellwood will be giving a colloquium talk for Concordia's Linguistics Program TODAY (Thursday, March 12th) from 4:15 to 5:45 in rm H527 (Hall building, 1455 De Maisonneuve Blvd. W.).
Sources of evidence in semantics
Linguistic meanings are not exhausted by their contributions to truth-conditions. Judgments of truth cannot therefore be the only data for semantic theory, especially if natural language semantics is a part of cognitive science. In this talk, I discuss how other behavioral data can allow us to infer the semantic properties of expressions, relying on assumptions about how they interact with other cognitive systems. As a test case, I discuss speaker understanding of "more" and "most", combining an analysis of their grammatical properties with evidence from adult performance and child language acquisition.
Bonnes conférences!
