10 november 2005: Grammaticalization of heads in the verbal domain

Workshop on grammaticalization At this moment, Alexandra Lenz from the University of Marburg is
visiting the Meertens Institute. Alexandra has done innovative work in
the field of grammaticalization. We thought it a good idea to organize
a workshop for this occasion. It is a small and more informal
workshop on grammaticalization. The emphasis will be on
grammaticalization processes concerning "heads in the (extended) verbal
domain".
