Research interests
While in the past I have worked primarily on
syntax-semantics interface, now I focus mostly on Russian morphology and lexical
phonology.
- Complex affixes
- Russian derivation and inflection (morphosyntax and morphophonology)
- Locatives: toponyms, locative and directional PPs, axial
parts and locative cases
- Proper names, bare, definite and modified; naming verbs
- Cardinal numerals
- Predicate marking cross-linguistically (article omission
with NP-predicates, Case-marking, copular particles)
