PARTE (PARTititvity in European languages) is a network of 9 research teams of theoretical linguists, dialectologists, sociolinguists, typologists, historical linguists and applied linguists at the University of Amsterdam, the Meertens Institute, the University of Zurich, Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, University of Pavia, Károli Gáspár University of the Reformed Church in Hungary (Budapest), University of Leipzig, Goethe Universität Frankfurt, University of Turku.
The goal is to work on the concept of partitivity in a comparative and interdisciplinary perspective, studying the emergence and spread of markers of partitivity, the theoretical analysis of these elements (articles pronouns, cases), and the strong affectedness of these elements by language contact (change or loss).
PARTE WORKSHOP 1 will focus on Partitive determiners and Partitive Case
