Proceedings of a conference on Formal Linguistics.

These conference proceedings examine various aspects of formal linguistics. Individual topics covered include: sequences of tense, intentionality and scope; empty consonants and direct prosody; syllable weight and quantity in Dutch; finite control on modern Persian; and copular sentences.

This volume contains 45 papers from the 24th West Coast Conference on Formal Linguistics (WCCFL 24), which was held at Simon Fraser University in 2005. The authors present new work in syntax, semantics, morphology, and phonology.
