Nina Klekot

Nina Klekot serves as Assistant Professor in the Department of Romance Linguistics at the Faculty of Humanities, John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin, specializing in the intersection of linguistic structures and socio-political contexts. Her academic foundation combines Romance Linguistics and European Studies from KUL.

Her educational background includes:

• Master of Arts in Romance Linguistics (2015-2017), John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin
• Master of Arts in European Studies (2011-2013), John Paul II Catholic University of Lublin

Klekot's research centers on language policy and linguistic economics, with particular expertise in political discourse analysis. She investigates how nominal encapsulation constrains interpretation in political communication, examines gender-neutral language implementation across European frameworks, and analyzes lexical innovation during crises like the COVID-19 pandemic. Her methodology emphasizes comparative analysis between Polish, Spanish, and French linguistic systems.

Her publication trajectory (2018-2024) reveals consistent focus on socio-linguistic interfaces, evolving from syntactic economy studies toward contemporary political discourse mechanisms. Recent works demonstrate increasing attention to policy implementation challenges and cross-linguistic patterns in crisis communication.

Academic recognition includes:

• NAWA PROM scholarship for international research exchange (2022)
• Erasmus+ staff mobility grant for training at Universidad de Salamanca (2022)
• Erasmus student mobility grant (2011)

As an educator, Klekot enforces structured assessment protocols requiring 70% attendance minimum, timely homework submission, and mandatory test participation. She actively organizes national Hispanist conferences and coordinates Lublin Science Festival projects exploring Mediterranean linguistic landscapes. Her professional engagement extends to international collaborations through Expertos ELE networks and conference participation across Europe.
