I am an associate professor in linguistics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology. In recent years I work mainly within Language Description and Documentation. My fields of interest are syntax and lexical semantics. I teach constraint-based grammars, mainly Lexical Functional Grammar and linguistic methodology suitable for data-driven approaches to linguistics and digital language documentation.
Together with Pavel Mihaylov I have developed TypeCraft.
In recent years I have spent most of my time with project work. More about this work and about recent publications you can find on my homepage. Recently I joined the Department of Modern Foreign Languages.
I try to spend as much time as possible with research and projects relating to TypeCraft. I enjoy multi-lingual approaches to linguistics. I have worked on the Kwa-languages of West Africa, and on the Bantu language Ruyankore-Rukiga spoken in Uganda.
A productive way to work together with other linguists on language projects is to create an annotation project on TypeCraft. Evaluating together annotated text, discussing alternative glossing possibilities makes linguistic work fairly concrete. Besides the discovery of 'new' or 'unexpected uses' of familiar pattern is one of the bonuses that makes this kind of 'hands-on' linguistics fun.
