Modal Particles in Romance Languages

1–2 June 2023

CLUL — Centro de Linguística da Universidade de Lisboa

Lisbon, Portugal

This two-days meeting brings together researchers on modal particles in Romance languages with the aim of discussing and elucidating the presence and the properties of modal particles in this language family.

We hope that this workshop will stimulate research on these elements, and it will lead to greater clarity on the distribution of modal particles in Romance languages, as well as on their formal and functional features.
