The two languages we have already investigated (English and Greek), plus the 5 languages we’ll investigate in this project (Tagalog, Bangla, Arabic, Slovenian and Bosnian/Croatian/Serbian) are, or course, still only a tiny subset of the world’s languages. So a major goal of this project is to create a template and toolkit that will make it possible to extend this investigation, or similar neurotypological projects, to a far broader range of languages. If you are a linguist (at any career stage) who works on any language other than the 7 we are already working on, and you’d be interested in collaborating, please get in touch at l.stockall@qmul.ac.uk.
We’ll also have opportunities for UG and MA students wanting to join the project as part time research assistants, so if you’re based in London and speak one of the languages we ARE investigating, get in touch.
