Edited by Alexandra Bagasheva, Akiko Nagano and Vincent Renner
Kentaro Koga et al. (John Benjamins, May 2024)

An overview of existing research in the field is provided, as well as new, cutting-edge findings and proposals for analytical innovation. Linguistic data are drawn from European and Asian languages, and morphologists, semanticists, and anyone interested in the dynamics of language will be stimulated by the analytical models and explanations offered in the 11 chapters.
