\nHis research investigates the phonotactics of complex nasals and nasal neutralization avoidance by examining a number of diverse languages which include in its repertoire pre-occluded nasals (DN) as in \/t\u00e0l\u00fagn\/ ‘rooster’ (Nothern Pame, Otomanguean) and post-occluded nasals (ND) as in \/ambo\/ ‘to climb’ (Karitiana, Tupi).<\/li>\n
\nHis research interests are in literary linguistics and syntax.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n
\n
\nHer research studies person hierarchy phenomena in two native South American languages: Guaran\u00ed (Tup\u00ed-Guaran\u00ed) and Ikpeng (Carib family).<\/li>\n
\nHis research is on the syntax and semantics of coordinate construction in Indo-European.<\/li>\n
\nHe is part of a research project that aims to account for the cross-linguistic properties of the subjunctive mood category.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
