Overview:
The faculty and students in this Department of Linguistics study both the structural and the social aspects of language as well as their interaction. They specialize in phonetics/phonology (Davidson, Gafos), syntax (Baltin, Collins, Kayne, Postal), semantics (Szabolcsi), and sociolinguistics (Blake, Guy, Singler), and branch out into historical (Costello), computational (Dougherty), and neurolinguistics (Pylkkänen). They have working relations with the departments of Anthropology, Philosophy, and Psychology.
