PhD
in Linguistics, USC · MA
Linguistics, · MA in
Spanish Language (Diploma de Estudios Avanzados), Universidad Autónoma de
Madrid · Main interests: language variation and change, syntax
and lexicon (argument structure), sociolinguistics, corpus/text linguistics,
psycholinguistics, computational linguistics. · Languages: I am particularly interested in
Romance languages –especially Spanish, French and Italian–, Germanic
languages –especially English and Dutch–, Latin, Basque, Early
Proto-Indoeuropean. · Specific
topics by field My research can be classified in the
following way, bearing in mind that most of my work was carried out using the
variationist approach, where data was extracted from a corpus: · Syntax: argument structure, locative
alternation, dative alternation, causative / inchoative alternation, verb
types (unergative, unaccusative, transitive), verbs of light and sound
emission, subject position in Spanish, EPP · Language
variation: frequency
adverbs and adverbial expressions in Spanish, word order, subject position,
verb types, gender and genre · Sociolinguistics: gender and stylistic variation in
the use of adverbials in Peninsular and Latin American varieties of Spanish.
My work in this area is co-authored with Asier Alcázar. · Text/corpus
linguistics: all of
the above, CREA and CORDE (online at www.rae.es), corpusdelespanol.org, SAS® applications. Some of my work
in this area has been co-authored with Asier Alcázar. The research on SAS® applications is co-authored with
Lindsey
Chen. · Historical
Linguistics:
diachronic evolution of word order in Spanish. Early Proto-Indo-European,
Latin and Basque. · Psycholinguistics: weight effects in online processing,
processing constraints, language production, constituent ordering · Computational
Linguistics: used as
a complement in my text/corpus research. My work in this area was co-authored
with Asier
Alcázar. |
