About the Conference<\/strong><\/mark><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

You are cordially invited to participate in the 23rd International Conference of the Commission on Word Formation of the International Committee of Slavists. The conference will take place at ZRC SAZU from September 17th to 20th, 2024, and it is jointly organized by ZRC SAZU and the Jo\u017eef Stefan Institute.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The theme of the conference\u2014Multistage Word Formation\u2014focuses on studies that extend the binary relationship between motivating and motivated words. This encompasses several words engaged in word-formation relations (e.g., to teach<\/em> \u2192 teacher<\/em>, teaching<\/em>, teachable<\/em>). These relations may involve multiple stages, with each word as the word-formation base of the next, thereby forming word-formation chains (e.g., to respond<\/em> \u2192 to correspond<\/em> \u2192 correspondence<\/em>; hope<\/em> \u2192 hopeful<\/em> \u2192 hopefulness<\/em>). The latter pattern is particularly typical of Slavic languages (e.g., in Slovenian: mladost<\/em> \u2018youth\u2019 \u2192 mladosten<\/em> \u2018youthful\u2019 \u2192 mladostnik<\/em> \u2018adolescent\u2019 \u2192 mladostnikov<\/em> \u2018adolescent\u2019s\u2019), although we also welcome research on languages from other language groups at the conference.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference title does not strictly specify a methodological approach but instead emphasizes the material expansion of the vocabulary analyzed. Therefore, the conference aims to explore aspects of word families both synchronically and diachronically, and within various contexts, including:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
