This is the wiki page for the Semantics of Natural Language reading group.

We meet every Monday from 15.30 to 16.30 in CSE 678. Our mailing list can be subscribed to (or unsubscribed from) at https://mailman.cs.washington.edu/mailman/listinfo/sem-nl.

This group is intended to provide an overview of the current state of the art in compositional representations of natural language semantics with an emphasis on wide coverage. Below is a list of potential reading but it is in no way exhaustive or final. Please feel free to add to it.
