Research Interests:

My research interests have included all of the major areas of linguistics: phonetics, phonology, morphology, syntax, semantics, historical linguistics and the history of the field, as well as a number of languages (Kwakw’ala, Georgian, Rumantsch, among others) and the relation between human language and animal communication. At Haskins, I have been particularly interested in the work on basic mechanisms of speech articulation and their relation to perception.
