CURRENT RESEARCH

Washo Vowel Quality
I work in the University of Chicago Phonology Lab on The Washo Project. My work includes parsing utterances, glossing morphemes, and transcribing recordings. I am currently working on a joint project with Professor Alan Yu on vowel length, quality and phonotactics in Washo.

Hindi/Urdu Temporal Semantics
I am currently investigating the semantics of the Hindi/Urdu lexeme kal, which means both "yesterday" and "tomorrow".
