I am a Professor in the Department of Foreign Languages of National Chiayi University. Taiwan. My main research interests are Cognitive Linguistics, Psycholinguistics, Corpus and Linguistics, and Autism and Language. The main subjects taught are the courses related to Linguistics, English composition, and Research Method

我任教於國立嘉義大學外語系，主要研究興趣是認知語言學、心理語言學、語料庫與語言學、和自閉症和語言。任教科目主要是語言學相關課程、英文作文以及研究方法和論文寫作。 

 My current research studies include fictive motion sentence processing and the language characteristics of patients with autism. Fictive motion sentences are a kind of figurative languages using motion verbs to describe statistic scenery or condition. I would like to figure out in what constraints people use fictive motion expressions and what factors influence people to understand fictive motion. 

Second, I have started to look at language features of children with autism, including their word order, semantics, and pragmatics. In addition, I am particularly interested in understanding how they deal with non-literal language. I want to know which types of non-literal language are more difficult to understand, such as irony, metaphor, fictive motion sentences, etc.

我目前的研究主要有二。一是虛擬移動動詞語句理解與表達，二是閉症患者的語言特徵。有關虛擬移動動詞語句的研究，我想要了解使用虛擬移動的約束原則，以及那些因素會影響人類理解虛擬移動語句。另外，在自閉症語言研究中，我們分析了他們的語詞語序、語意和語用等。另外，我以特別有興趣了解他們處理非字面語言的問題，想知道哪一類非字面語言比較困難理解，例如諷刺語、隱喻、虛擬移動動詞語句等等。 

 If you are interested in my research and want to explore the related issues in cognitive linguistics, please join my Language Cognition and Technology Laboratory  and talk to me. 

若你對於我的研究有興趣，有事想從事有關認知語言學相關研究，歡迎加入我的語言認知與科技實驗室。
