I'll be at CLS on April 17-19, presenting an argument against an allosemy treatment of nominalization ambiguity
Mexico City May 6-9! At WCCFL I'll give a talk on how locality domains diverge in allomorphy and allosemy
I'm a second-year PhD student at NYU Linguistics, supervised by Alec Marantz.
I work on:
Syntax-phonology
doing away with morphology-specific linearization mechanisms
explaining away morphomic generalizations
locality of allomorphy
Syntax-semantics
argument structure alternations
the compositional properties of inner aspect in Balto-Slavic
the ambiguity of nominalizations
I was previously at the University of Oxford, UK, where I got my MPhil in Linguistics, Philology and Phonetics and my BA in Linguistics and Portuguese. I was supervised by Víctor Acedo-Matellán and Matt Husband.
Previously:
My MPhil thesis looked into how nominal and verbal domain interact, through a case-study in Balto-Slavic-type aspect. I looked at phonological (case), syntactic (argument structure) and semantic (definiteness, strength, mass/count) phenomena in Lithuanian to investigate to what extent verbal aspect can be determined by nominal properties. Presented at PLC 49.
I have argued that variable linearization of Lithuanian and Portuguese clitics is prosodic (contra morphological movement). Presented at ConSOLE.
Presented a poster (with Malhaar Shah) at CreteLing on Contextual allosemy and complex heads: architectural problems. [pdf]
