معرفی
Josh Phillips is a postdoctoral researcher and lecturer in the Department of Linguistics at Yale University. He works closely with Claire Bowern, leading a National Science Foundation-funded project (NSF award № 2116164) to investigate natural language negation, its variation, and historical development. His research bridges formal semantics and diachronic linguistics, focusing on creole languages and Australian languages, particularly those spoken in Arnhem Land.
- Research Focus: Semantics of functional categories, contact-induced language change, and computational phylogenetics.
- Teaching: Courses include intensional semantics, pragmatic theory, meaning change, and language endangerment.
- Methodology: Combines fieldwork in Northern Australia (Ramingiṉiŋ, Ropa/Ngukurr) with formal semantic frameworks.
His work contributes to understanding how temporal and modal phenomena interact in understudied languages, informing broader theories of grammaticalisation and modal logic. Though currently under construction, his website hosts manuscripts, syllabi, and CV.
