The Department of English-Polish Comparative Linguistics cordially invites everyone to join us for the May meeting of the Syn&Sin syntax reading and discussion club. The meeting will be held on Wednesday, May 15th, 11:30-13:00 in room 341. Bartosz Wiland will talk about how to derive multiple prefixes in Polish verbs (as in, e.g., po-prze-pisywać listy `rewrite letters’) in grammar without postulating arbitrary rules or positional diacritics.
