On March 11th, we had a fruitful meeting between Lyn and members from XPrag.de. Lyn presented joint work with Kazuko Yatsushiro, Alexandre Cremers, Jacopo Romoli, Uli Sauerland and Emmanuel Chemla on “the acquisition of simple and complex disjunctions in French and Japanese” concluding that children are capable of pragmatic enrichment when alternatives are salient. Afterwards Nicole Gotzner and Anton Benz from project SIGames presented a new experimental paradigm for the investigation of embedded implicatures motivated by game theory.
