Lexical-Realizational Functional Grammar (LrFG) Lab
The LrFG Lab is an entirely virtual lab that has international participation. It meets Fridays 9:00-10:30 (Rochester time) throughout the year, except for a couple of short hiatuses. All are welcome! We also have a low-traffic mailing list that you can join. Please email Ash Asudeh if you would like to attend (Zoom) or would like to be added to the mailing list.
LRFG is the result of an unlikely marriage between Distributed Morphology (DM) and Lexical-Functional Grammar (LFG). It shares traits of both its parent frameworks. Like LFG, it is a declarative, representational and constraint-based theory that is well-suited to modelling nonconfigurationality. Like DM, it provides a realizational, morphemic view of word-formation and is good at modelling complex morphological structures including those found in polysynthetic languages and other languages that display significant morphological complexity.
