Karlos Arregi is a Professor in the Department of Linguistics at the University of Chicago. He received his Ph.D. in Linguistics from MIT in 2002 and has been teaching at UChicago since 2008. His research focuses on syntax, morphology, and their interfaces with phonology and semantics, with primary data from Basque, Spanish, and Washo.
- Ph.D., Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002
- Teaching at University of Chicago since 2008
His work investigates whether grammatical properties arise from syntactic principles or interface regulations. Key areas include syntactic word formation, agreement/case theory, clitics, ellipsis, stress phonology, and switch reference.
Recent publications examine: long head movement unification (2021), Basque-Washo comparative morphotactics (2022), parasitic gap constraints (2024), and generalized head movement theory (2018). Articles frequently address morpheme order, postsyntactic operations, and interface phenomena across Basque, Spanish, and indigenous languages.
He has taught advanced courses in Morphology (LING 21000/LING 31000), Syntax (LING 30201), and Placement Proseminar (LING 47850) to prepare graduate students for academic job markets.
