Welcome to my website! 

I am a linguist, working at the English literature and linguistics department, at Bar Ilan University. 

My main reserach areas are formal semantics and the semantics-pragmatics interface. 

Among other things, I have worked on the following research topics:

• The semantics and pragmatics of alternative-sensitive expressions (exclusives, additives, scalars, incrementals etc.), their interaction with prosodical patterns, and the parameters along which they vary, both inter- and intra-linguistically.

• The linguistic encoding of scales and the relationship between scalar particles and degree-based  / gradability-related constructions

• The linguistic encoding of different kinds of approximation, intensification, and vagueness.

• Metalinguistic, discourse-based and speech-act related phenomena

• THe linguistic encoding of expectations and 'normality' (as with generics and various other modal constructions), as well as with their violations (as in 'mirative' constructions and expressions)

• Hebrew linguistics
