Short presentation

Jeg forsker i fransk grammatik og lingvistik i både et synkront og diakront perspektiv. Min hovedvægt ligger på verbalsyntaksen, navnlig tempus, modus og aspekt. Jeg interesserer mig for, hvorfor og hvordan sprog forandrer sig og er bl.a. optaget af, hvorfor generisk beslægtede sprog, som f.eks. de romanske, udvikler sig med forskellig hastighed i forhold til deres fælles udgangspunkt, latin. P.t. arbejder jeg med et projekt, der vedrører sprogforandringer i de romanske sprog. Jeg er særlig optaget af udviklingen af de analytiske versus de syntetiske former på hhv. fortids- og fremtidsaksen.
Jeg forsker også i fremmedsprogspædagogik og -tilegnelse med særligt fokus på inter- og multikulturel kompetence og skriftlighed i franskuddannelsen.  
Jeg underviser i fransk grammatik, sprogvariation, sprogforandring, oversættelse dansk-fransk og fransk-dansk, skriftlig formidling/akademisk argumentation, fonetik og fonologi samt fremmedsprogstilegnelse. Derudover vejleder jeg BA-projekter, specialer og emneopgaver om alt inden for fransk sprog, både teoretisk og anvendelsesorienteret.
