PhD in: Linguistics - 34° call
Curriculum: General and Applied Linguistics
SSD: L-LIN/01
Project title: “Linguistic classification and its mechanisms. A comparative analysis in Italian, English and Arabic”.
My research project will explore the characteristics of linguistic classification in three different languages - Italian, English and Arabic – through the analysis of a subtype of binomial constuctions, namely the type "N1 prep N2". The aim of the project is to identify the pragmatic and morpho-syntactic behaviour of these constructions through a corpus-based analysis.
