Meeting Description:

PHEX 15 is the fifth (online) workshop of our research project “The Mapping from Syntax to Phonology: Theory, Typology and History,’’ which is a continuation of our project “Phonological Externalization of Morphosyntactic Structure: Universals and Variables'' (2015-2020). Following the success of the previous workshops in Sapporo, Niigata, Tokyo and Lexington, KY, we are glad to invite abstracts for presentation about the morphosyntax-phonology interface.
