I had been working on a Ph. D. in German Language for what feels like forever—more accurately, for seven years since February of 2017. As the proverb goes, “Good things come to those who wait,” so last month, the revised version of my thesis has finally been published by Language Science Press’ Advances in Historical Linguistics series.

My own project, A01, co-PI-ed with Jutta Hartmann, deals with analogy in #morphosyntax and considers whether analogical processes can apply in larger units than words: we'll be investigating #Hungarian long-distance agreement and #German(ic) long-distance dependencies to study whether structures sharing surface and underlying properties can influence each other.

We have two PhD positions available!
Looking at an old final exam (introduction to #English #Morphosyntax, 2009) and can't help noticing a dark streak running through the example sentences. Exhibits:
1. The children's indifference killed the sweet little pets.
2. Her train was not one of those destroyed by the thunderstorm.
3. The government released all prisoners who were still able to walk.
Oh well :)
