24 - 25 April 2025, Polar question form[s] across languages

After the success of our first workshop Polar Question Meaning[s] Across Languages, we are launching a second POQAL meeting, this time focusing on form. How are polar questions expressed in syntax, morphology, intonation? How do components of the grammar of each language constrain and determine these ways, e.g. in the inventory of functional categories, the expression of negation, focus, polarity, intonational characteristics, pragmatic division of labor among forms? How do fine grammatical components correlate with fine components of meaning? What crosslinguistic generalizations can be made in this new level of granularity?
