Forecasting the propagation of language change
In this lecture I present fundamental ways of approaching the study of language change. I argue that language forecasting, i.e. predictions about language in the future, offers a novel way of studying change over time. Using examples from Icelandic, I show how the propagation of language change may be predicted.
