Profile
I'm a semanticist. I work on meaning in natural languages. I'm interested in what is going on abstractly in our brains and how languages express those meanings in a variety of different ways. This means that I'm interested in other linguistic areas such as syntax and morphology, but also non-linguistic disciplines that look at meaning at the philosophical and cognitive level.
