About

I am a linguist specializing in comparative syntax and morphology, especially in the domain of argument structure. My research integrates syntactic theory, typology and experimental methods. I have a particular interest in causative constructions and Austronesian languages.

At SJSU, I teach syntax and semantics and advise projects in theoretical and experimental syntax. I am also affiliated with the ERC Synergy Project LeibnizDream and DFG Scientific Network Applicative alternations across languages (AAAL). I received my PhD from New York University and am from the southernmost city in Canada. 🇨🇦

How to pronounce my name: [jɪˈnɪŋ ˈniː], I also accept [ˈjɪnɪŋ]
