Research
My research interests include Slavic and general linguistics. My specialty
within Slavic is the Serbo-Croatian area (Bosnian, Croatian, Serbian). I have also
worked on or taught other South Slavic languages, Polish, Russian and Belarusian,
the Balkan language area, Old Church Slavonic, Slavic historical grammar, comparative
and contrastive grammar, and pedagogical grammar.
In general linguistics, I have done research in syntax, morphology, and
phonology, in particular relative and other subordinate clauses, interrogatives,
clitic rules, word order, reflexive verbs, accent rules, etc., usually using
Slavic material.
Graduate Fields Represented: Linguistics, Slavic Studies, Medieval
Studies
