PRESENTACIÓN

 | I have a background in general linguistics, specializing in typology. My particular interest in phenomena of voice and valence-changing operations led me to conduct investigations on the psych alternation in Romance languages and beyond. Now, I am further pursuing my curiosity in typology from a geographic and diachronic perspective as a PhD student in the ERC Language REDUX project. I aim to explore the spatial and temporal dynamics of languages, language families, and language diversity across the Eurasian continent, and how these dynamics affect language structurally. |
