On 25-27 June, 2025, the Society of Pidgin and Creole Language presented its summer conference (SPCL), hosted by The University of the West Indies, Mona, under the theme Pidgin and Creole Studies in the Era of Big Data and AI. 5th-year student Christopher Legerme gave an oral presentation, titled Intermodular Spell-Out and the Distribution of Ye in Haitian Creole. His talk discussed how the copular morpheme ye in Haitian Creole emerges to satisfy prosodic requirements at PF, linking its distribution to broader patterns in Haitian Creole like verbal apocope.
