I am an assistant professor in the Linguistics department at the University of California, Berkeley. My research focuses on Amazonian languages, and I am particularly interested in the strategic use of grammatical resources in interaction, language documentation and revitalization, and language politics. I have principally worked with speakers of Nanti (Arawak) and Iquito (Zaparoan), in Peruvian Amazonia.

More information about my research interests and reasearch projects can be found here.

    Have you considered listing an email address? Anyway, feel free to delete this comment when you’ve read it; this is simply to notify you of a post of mine on Zotero. As you’ve written on research software before, I thought you might be interested.

    Thanks for the heads up, Mark. And yes, I suppose it *would* be a good idea to list an email address. I have been paranoid about getting spammed as a result, but I’ll give it a try, and see what happens


  3. Don’t list the full address, though! There are lots of ways to put it so that your conspecifics will understand it, but spambots won’t.

    Hi, my name is Ben, and I’m from the lexiophiles.com blog. I wanted to inform you that we published a list of the top 250 language blogs a short time ago, and we ranked your blog number 105 on our list! We have a short description of your blog on the website; we would appreciate if you could check it out and see if it is correct. If not we can modify it :)
    Best,
    Ben Valembois
