Linguistics Colloquium Series

Research interests:

• Southeast Asian languages, particularly Tibeto-Burman, Tai-Kadai, and Chamic groups (historical syntax, subgrouping, evidentiality, tones and registers, and language contact); SEA papers
• Endangered languages. Much of the above work is on minority languages, many of which are seriously endangered (e.g. most currently, Tsat (Chamic, Austronesian), Anong (Nungish, Tibeto-Burman, and Sino-Tibetan. 
• General linguistics, discourse and syntax, sometimes with particular interest in relevance to teaching and second language acquisition;

English Sounds: English Sounds, pdf, see also General papers

• Second Language Acquisition and TESOL, primary focus on teacher training, particularly materials adaptation and development, methods and methodology, and teaching of grammar (see TESOL Materials, above; for TESOL/EFL papers, see General papers, above)
