Key Objectives
- With a variety of empirical methods we develop and scrutinize phonological theories that can account for the phonetics-phonology interface, the mapping of phonological onto orthographical representations, and contact phenomena such as loanword adaptations and L2 acquisition
- We collaborate with descriptive and/or fieldwork linguists in order to
- Co-develop methodologies of phonological and phonetic descriptions
- Obtain access to new data for typological studies
- Detect and discuss relevant developments in the field, in a way that is inclusive and welcoming to students and staff alike
