Glenn Starr

Dr. Glenn Starr is a Teaching Professor in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee's College of Letters and Science. His research investigates second language acquisition processes, with particular focus on pragmatic development, scalar implicatures, and cross-linguistic influences. Dr. Starr employs experimental methods to examine how learners acquire pragmatic competence and phonological systems in second languages.

His publications demonstrate consistent focus on experimental approaches to language acquisition, with recent work examining how language learners process pragmatic inferences and phonological contrasts. Research shows particular interest in the interface between syntax, semantics, and pragmatics in bilingual speakers.
