Author Biography

Jenny Audring is Assistant Professor of Linguistics at Leiden University. She specializes in morphology and has written extensively on grammatical gender. Her research interests range from linguistic complexity and Canonical Typology to Construction Morphology and morphological theory. She is the co-editor, with Sebastian Fedden and Greville G. Corbett, of Non-Canonical Gender Systems (OUP 2018) and co-author, with Ray Jackendoff, of a forthcoming OUP monograph on the texture of the mental lexicon.

Francesca Masini is Associate Professor of Linguistics at the University of Bologna. Her research interests are in semantics, morphology and the lexicon, primarily within Construction Grammar and Construction Morphology. Her main focus is on multiword expressions, word classes, lexical typology, and the lexicon-syntax interface. She is currently Associate Editor of The Oxford Encyclopedia of Morphology, a special project of The Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Linguistics.
