The course will provide basic knowledge in inflectional morphology. With 'agreement', 'syncretism' and 'paradigm structure' three central concepts will be discussed in more detail. The concepts will be exemplified mainly with data from Indo-European standard languages. For German and Italian also other contemporary und historical varieties will be considered, in accordance with the PhD programme's special focus on dialects and minority languages. A third-year PhD student will contribute a case study on historical dialectology of German.
