PhD projects
I'm interested in a range of issues around naturally-occurring talk, ranging from segmental phonetic details to the co-ordination of speech with non-speech physical actions such as gesture. I'm also happy to work on languages other than English; I am reasonably fluent in Swedish, Finnish, German, and French and have worked on other languages too.
I'm interested in language as a social phenomenon and as a resource for doing things: previous work focuses on complaints, requests and assessments, as well as turn-taking and indexing certain kinds of stance. My more recent work has looked at non-lexical vocalisations like clicks, swallows and laughter.
