The work of Kaplan (1999) spurred broad interest in non-asserted, non-truth conditional meaning, especially in what has recently been termed expressive or use-conditional meaning (Potts, 2005; Gutzmann, 2015). Much has been accomplished in different frameworks in understanding how expressive meaning interacts with truth-conditional meaning. However, many questions remain in characterizing the types of expressive meaning predicates available, exploring which linguistic constructions encode expressive meaning, and formalizing expressive meaning. In this workshop we narrow our focus to properties, particularly emotive attitudes, of the expressive content itself. Questions we hope to address in this workshop include (but are not limited to):

• What is the range of emotive attitudes that can be expressed (e.g., GOOD, BAD, SURPRISE) in non-truth-conditional meaning and what do they encompass?
• Can an expression encode multiple attitudes simultaneously? Do their availability vary cross-linguistically? Can (and how do) different syntactic configurations encode particular emotive attitudes?
• What linguistic mechanisms encode non-truth-conditional attitudinal content?
• Are there particular grammatical means for encoding the content? How do certain expressions, such as exclamatives, make use of expressive meaning (i.e., Castroviejo, 2008)?
• Does intonation, either in spoken and sign (=non-manual markers), mark or otherwise influence the expression of attitudinal content, and in what way?
• How can we formalize attitudinal content? Is a multi-dimensional semantics, a dynamic semantics with context updates (AnderBois et al., 2013), or a combination of both best?

We intend to address the above questions or related questions in this workshop.
