1. How departicipial are "L-participle" nominalisations in Western South SlavicMarko Simonović, Petra Mišmaš, Stefan Milosavljević, Boban Arsenijević, Katarina Gomboc Čeh, Franc Marušič, Rok Žaucer, 2025, published scientific conference contribution Abstract: We focus on nominalisations seemingly derived from l-participles, illustrated by lec-nominalisations in Slovenian, in order to establish the nature and position of the l-morpheme as well as the structure of these nominalisations in general. Our research is situated in the current debates on whether the item l in l-participles and l-nominalisations is the same morpheme or two different morphemes, and if the former, whether l-nominalisations are derived from l-participles. We argue that the l-morpheme is a root in both, but also show that it is not the case that lec-nominalisations contain l-participles. The lec-nominalisations are argued to contain a smaller structure than the corresponding l-participle, which is also reflected in the set of theme vowels possible in these nominalisations.

2. The (un)expectedly stacked prefixes in SlovenianFranc Marušič, Petra Mišmaš, Rok Žaucer, 2025, published scientific conference contribution Abstract: When a Slavic verb occurs with multiple prefixes their order is often claimed to follow certain restrictions of a fairly formal character. Firstly, lexical prefixes, which can modify the argument structure of the verb and contribute idiosyncratic interpretations, are always found adjacent to the verbal root, while superlexical prefixes, which do not alter the argument structure and whose interpretative contribution is adverbial, can be stacked over the lexicals. And secondly, when multiple superlexicals stack on a verbal stem, they follow a fixed order. We set out to test these two generalizations with a corpus study. We find that there exist a number of verbs which seem to have more than one lexical prefix, in direct contradiction of the standard assumptions about prefixation.

10. Clause Mates matter : lecture at the IGG50, 50th Incontro di Grammatica Generativa, University of Padova, Italy, 20. 2. 2025Ekaterina Georgieva, Franc Marušič, Petra Mišmaš, Rok Žaucer, 2025, unpublished conference contribution Abstract: In this talk, we investigate multiple sluicing and multiple wh-questions in Bosnian/Croatian/Montenegrin/Serbian (BCMS). (1) Based on novel data, we argue that the Clause-Mate Condition (CMC) is operative in the case of multiple sluicing in BCMS, contra previous influential claims (Lasnik 2014). (2) We explore the CMC-related locality restrictions on multiple wh-questions and show that the wh-phrases must also originate from the same clause.
Keywords: sluicing, multiple wh-questions, Clause-Mate Condition, BCMS
