Second-year student Cooper Roberts presented a paper on October 25 at an online workshop devoted to Puzzles of Agreement: Syntactic, Semantic, and Psycholinguistic perspectives. His talk, entitled “Half of an answer: on agreement with fraction partitives”, proposed an analysis of some puzzling agreement patterns in English nominals like one-third of the students, and suggests a way to think about analogous constructions elsewhere in Indo-European. The workshop was organized by linguists at UMass Amherst, ZAS Berlin, the University of Toronto, and the University of Bucharest.
