We are organizing a workshop on naming strategies on October 6th and 7th 2008. The workshop will address naming strategies and word formation in a contrastive perspective. It is hosted by the Institut für deutsche und niederländische Philologie at Freie Universität Berlin in collaboration with Alex Klinge and Henrik H. Müller from the Copenhagen Business School, Department of International Language Studies and Computational Linguistics.

Keynote speakers:

• Heinz J. Giegerich (Edinburgh)

There will be no conference fee. If you want to attend the workshop, we kindly ask you to register as soon as possible by sending a mail to namingstrategies@niederlandistik.fu-berlin.de.
