I’m mostly interested in L2 acquisition by adults and bilingual children, and in the way ones mother tongue and the targeted L2 shape and influence each other, whether by articulation or by perception, self-expression, and worldview.

Currently I am assisting the ERC project “MAJLIS: The Transformation of Jewish Literature in Arabic in the Islamicate World” in transcribing old Hebrew catalogues.
