I agree to supervise dissertations that relate to one or more of the following elements:

• English grammar: the student seeks to provide a detailed description of a specific phenomenon by combining an empirical approach (e.g. corpus linguistics) with a qualitative analysis. Any aspect of the English language can be covered (not necessarily modality), whether from a synchronic or diachronic perspective.
• Semantics/pragmatics interface: the student is particularly interested in questions relating to the nature of meaning, that is, the way meaning is (co-)constructed in usage, the co(n)textual factors that directly contribute to the interpretation of a construction, or the different types of meaning (semantic, pragmatic, or social) that a construction can be used to express.
• Theoretical puzzles: in doing so, the student is also concerned with more theoretical questions (preferably within the framework of Construction Grammar or Relevance Theory) which they hope to answer as part of their research.
