Message/Self-Introduction | My research interest lies mainly in the cognitive aspects of languages, i.e., how we humans are able to speak and think using languages. I’ve been mainly engaged in phenomena like verb-particle constructions and German modal particles in terms of cognitive abilities. Some of the concepts I am particularly interested in now are connected with such keywords as compositionality, belief revision, and intersubjectivity. |
