Cipria's presentation examines the linguistic environments in which a futurate reading arises in attested naturally occurring data and seeks to give a principled explanation of why this reading is possible in the first place.  For more information about the Hispanic Linguistics Colloquium, click here.  This event is sponsored in part by a U.S. Department of Education Title VI grant to The Ohio State University Center for Latin American Studies.   Hagerty Hall, Room 255 Center for Latin American Studies clas@osu.edu America/New_York public
