    Research interests

    I work with corpus linguistics and multifactorial statistics within a usage-based/constructionist framework focusing on grammatical alternations in Germanic and Romance languages. Together with Anna Endresen, I lead the collaborative effort of creating the Norwegian ConstructiCon. I am associated with the research groups ConLab (Tromsø Constructicon Lab), CLEAR (Cognitive Linguistics: Empirical Approaches to Russian and other languages) and BLAU (Usage-based linguistics, second language acquisition and teaching).

    Teaching

    This semester (spring 2025) I teach the following courses:

    NOR-0010-1 Norwegian for international students A1-level
    NOR-0020-1 Norwegian for international students B1A
