Research
Michaël Peyrot’s research focuses on the reconstruction of Proto-Indo-European, in particular the verbal system, and on language contact and prehistory, especially in the Tocharian, Iranian and Indic branches. The leading question is how language contact can be used to draw conclusions about linguistic prehistory. More broadly, he is intrigued by the question how languages have come to be as they are. For instance, how do different changes in a language correlate, i.e. how do changes in e.g. consonants and vowels, or in phonology and morphology, or in different morphological categories interact? How does language contact influence linguistic change? Which causes are there to language spread, language split and language death?
