Grammatical Studies Workshops 4 : “Is there really a ‘zero’? (2) “

The workshop focuses on the linguistic analysis of “zero”, following the last workshop held in March.
Linguistic analyses often assume a zero form when there is nothing tangible on the surface. However, since a zero does not have any substance, it is sometimes quite difficult to determine whether there is actually a zero or nothing. In the workshop, we shall discuss problems concerning a linguistic zero on the basis of case examples from various languages.
