A clear formulation of my research interests / agenda

Primary research interests:

  • Sonority, sonority-based phonology, and syllable margin phenomena, including consonant cluster and syllable contact phonology;
  • Turkic and Mongolic vowel systems, especially concerning harmony, articulatory "backness", and interaction with consonant phonology;
  • Socio-historical linguistics, especially involving contact and divergence of Turkic varieties with both Turkic and non-Turkic varieties;
  • Turkic languages, especially Kazakh and Kyrgyz.

Secondary research interests:

  • Computational modeling of morphosyntax and morphophonology, especially regarding Turkic and Mongolic languages;
  • Temporal semantics (tense, aspect, evidentiality, etc.) of Turkic and Mongolic verbal systems, including its mapping to morphology;
  • Developing documentation and computational resources for Turkic and Mongolic varieties;
  • Mongolic languages, especially Khalkha;
  • Volga-Kama Turkic languages (Chuvash, Tatar, Bashqort).
