Call for Abstracts: Human communication is a multimodal system. Research on the contribution of the visual modality - in terms of gestures - to linguistics has grown in the last years. While aspects of gesture’s meaning and function have been intensively studied, less attention has been paid to visual and kinematic features, which nevertheless form the building blocks from which multimodal utterances constitute their meaning. To fully grasp the meaning and function of gestures and gradual var

Coexistence of borrowed and native word formation morphology is a widespread if not universal characteristic of languages (Matras & Sakel 2007; Gardani, Arkadiev & Amiridze 2015). In many cases, foreign derived morphemes occupy specific lexical strata or registers, reflecting a compartmentalisation into native and borrowed subsystems (Matras 2009). For example, English word formation features both native Germanic and borrowed Latinate suffixes (e.g., -ness vs. -ity, respectively), whereby some o
