## Summary

This poster was presented on 2021 April 8 - 11 at the [39th meeting of the
West Coast Conference on Formal
Linguistics](https://sites.google.com/view/wccfl2021/).

  

Provided abstract:

Formal approaches to semantics such as Montague grammar are very productive
for analyzing functional morphology, but not so much lexical morphology. I
argue that this is in part because of an externalist prescriptivism built into
the theory that needs to be shed before model-theoretic methods can be
extended to successfully encompass the lexical domain.
