Ongoing projects
Exceptionality at the crossroads of phonology and morphology
SSHRC Insight grant
2023-2028
This project examines how phonological exceptionality can be affected by morphological factors. This included regularization by affixation and affixation exceptionality.
Community-engaged linguistic consulting
SSHRC Partnership Engage grant application ongoing
2023-
Language is at the core of human experience. As linguists we have an opportunity to serve and empower communities and act as catalysts for change and language revitalization.
The Phonology of Slovenian
NWO Rubicon Grant
University of Toronto Connaught grant
Government of Slovenia grants
2012-2025
Slovenian data offers a rich basis for phonological research. This project will provide a comprehensive overview of Slovenian sound patterns.
Fieldwork and language documentation
SSHRC Insight Development grant
SSHRC Insight grant
ongoing grant applications
Data obtained in the field has been instrumental in advancing linguistic theories. The goal of this project is to identify and refine best practices in supporting language communities.
Phonological opacity
SSHRC grant application in progress
2018-
Opacity is a major challenge for constraint-based theories, particularly parallel Optimality Theory. This project aims at cataloguing opaque patterns across languages and provide principled accounts for a subset of opaque patterns.
Locality in consonant harmony
SSHRC Insight Development grant
2019-2023
This project focuses on an ultrasound investigation of two varieties of Slovenian which deepen our understanding of consonant harmony.
