Academically
speaking, I am a linguist . My main interest as a teacher
and a researcher is in the study of how different languages
assemble words to form sentences (syntax) and how sentences
can be used to convey meaning (semantics and pragmatics).
If you like linguistic jargon, I am a linguist who is interested
in the crosslinguistic study of the syntax-semantics-pragmatics
interface.
Wovon
man nicht sprechen kann, darüber muß man schweigen. 'What
we cannot speak about we must pass over in silence.' [
Ludwig Wittgenstein, Tractatus Logico-philosophicus,
Prop. 7 ]
