Research

One important goal in linguistic research is to understand why some patterns are very common across and within languages whereas others rarely or never occur. My research aims to uncover the deeper principles underlying these statistical tendencies, using a combination of quantitative data, linguistic theory, and statistical modeling techniques. My main focus is on sound and word patterns.
