Our Interests:
As a group, we are interested in the evolution of language, syntax and semantics. We are passionate about understanding why we the use the structures in language that we use, why we prescribe meaning to words in the ways that we do, and how these structures and meanings have evolved in languages. Through our project we would like to potentially help children who struggle with learning language, and we believe that learning the evolution of properties of language will help us with that goal.
