Issues addressed include the determination of meaning in typological studies; a refined understanding of diachronic processes by including intentional, social, statistical, and level-determined phenomena; the reconsideration of categories such as sentence, evidential or adposition, and structures such as compounds or polysynthesis; the tension between formal simplicity and functional clarity; the inclusion of unusual systems in theoretical debates; and fresh approaches to Chinese classifiers, possession in Oceanic languages, and English aspect. This is a careful selection of papers presented at the International Symposium on Linguistic Diversity and Language Theories in Boulder, Colorado. The purpose of the Symposium was to confront fundamental issues in language structure and change with the rich variation of forms and functions observed across languages. 410 0$aStudies in language companion series ;$vv. 72. 606 $aLinguistics 606 $aLanguage and languages 615 0$aLinguistics. 615 0$aLanguage and languages. 676 $a410 701 $aFrajzyngier$b Zygmunt$0168843 701 $aHodges$b Adam$01800481 701 $aRood$b David S$0317646 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910972256703321 996 $aLinguistic diversity and language theories$94345608 997 $aUNINA
