The First International Workshop on Resources and Tools for Derivational Morphology will be held in Milan (Italy) on October 5th and 6th 2017.

The workshop concludes the Word Formation Latin (WFL) project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon 2020 research and innovation programme under the Marie Skłodowska-Curie grant agreement No 658332-WFL. The project is based at the Centro Interdisciplinare di Ricerche per la Computerizzazione dei Segni dell’Espressione (CIRCSE), at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore, Milan, Italy.

The WFL project consists in the compilation of a derivational morphological dictionary of the Latin language, which connects lexical elements on the basis of word-formation rules. For a work-in-progress version of the resource, please visit http://wfl.marginalia.it.

This workshop wants to be both an opportunity for the presentation of the WFL lexicon to the wider community of Latin linguistics, and a place where confrontation with other scholars engaged in the treatment of derivational morphology from a linguistic computing point of view can arise, and potentials for the sharing of techniques and methods can be discussed.
