DESCRIPTION:After the success of our first worksho
 p Polar Question Meaning[s] Across Languages, we a
 re launching a second POQAL meeting, this time foc
 using on form. How are polar questions expressed i
 n syntax, morphology, intonation? How do component
 s of the grammar of each language constrain and de
 termine these ways, e.g. in the inventory of funct
 ional categories, the expression of negation, focu
 s, polarity, intonational characteristics, pragmat
 ic division of labor among forms? How do fine gram
 matical components correlate with fine components 
 of meaning? What crosslinguistic generalizations c
 an be made in this new level of granularity?
