Syntactic transfer in the Italian spoken in New York City

2019-2020: Fall

I am a linguist specializing in language contact. My main research focus is on Italian. I studied Germanic, Romance, and General Linguistics at the universities of Venice, Münster, and Vienna (PhD 2009) and obtained a habilitation in Italian and General Linguistics at the University of Zurich (2019). I held research and teaching positions in Vienna, Graz, and Zurich and taught courses at four international summer schools. I am the co-Editor-in-Chief of the Oxford Encyclopedia of Romance Linguistics, published by Oxford University Press.
