Verv
I am on the editorial board of Norsk Lingvistisk Tidsskrift and Slavica Bergensia.

Forskningsinteresser

My research interests include:

• Slavic linguistics, especially Russian morphology and phonology


• Linguistic theory, especially cognitive linguistics and Optimality Theory

Forskningsprosjekter

Together with Laura Janda, I am involved in the Exploring Emptiness project, which concerns word formation of Russian verbs from the perspective of cognitive linguistics.

I am currently involved in one of CASTL’s morphology subprojects: gender assignment (http://uit.no/castl/2447/4), as well as a project on softening in Slavic languages.
