My main area is generative syntax and the syntax-semantics interface. I am mostly interested in the following topics:
- morphosyntactic features and their representation (especially nominal features)
- agreement and its effects on interpretation
- grammatical number and syntactic plurality
- the syntax of numerals and other determiners
- the internal syntax of noun phrases
- the syntactic encoding of definiteness and its relation to the structure of the noun phrase
- mismatches between the syntactic encoding of definiteness and the semantic definite-indefinite distinction
- case and differential object marking
- features and underspecification
- feature-based grammar formalisms
