Hispanic Linguistics Colloquium: Professor Alicia Cipria

Alicia Cipria
March 1, 2019
2:20 pm - 3:20 pm
Hagerty Hall, Room 255

Professor Alicia Cipria from the University of Alabama will be visiting campus to discuss the futurate reading of the Spanish present progressive.Tradition tells us that, unlike English, the Spanish present progressive (estar +ndo) is never used to express future-like meanings. 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. 
 
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.
