This collection of papers opens a debate on the relationship
between processes of grammaticalisation and systems of
word-classes. It centers on the question of how diachronic
grammaticalization processes and synchronic hierarchies of
grammaticality relate to the lexico-grammatical categorization of
the word inventory in natural languages (= systems of
word-classes). Whereas systems of word-classes are normally only
seen as an external system of reference for processes of
grammaticalization, the papers in this volume inquire into the
grammaticalization of the word-classes themselves (in the language
system and in language acquisition).
