TOM 13

At last, our department is delighted to be hosting the thirteenth Toronto-Ottawa-Montreal Semantics Workshop (TOM 13), which could not be held last year. It will be taking place online on Friday, May 21. Alongside participants from several other institutions in the area, we have six graduate students taking part:

  • Alec Kienzle (Ph.D.): "A reassessment of the semantics and pragmatics of English rise-fall-rise intonation."
  • Angelika Kiss (Ph.D.): "Epistemic stance in declarative questions."
  • Crystal Chen (MA): "A comparison of recent literature on demonstratives."
  • Bruno Andreotti (Ph.D.) has a poster: "Lexical semantics and model theory: Modelling differences between taxonomic conventions."
  • Gregory Antono (Ph.D.) also has a poster: "Biased questions in Colloquial Singapore English: The case of 'meh"."
  • Samuel Jambrović (Ph.D., Department of Spanish and Portuguese) has a poster as well: "The singular plurality of family reference."
