His academic position and research profile establish him as a prominent figure in Slavic linguistics. His research interests encompass: Semantics, syntax, and morphology with special focus on their interfaces Verbal aspect and Slavic verb prefixation Agreement mechanisms, particularly gender agreement Clausal embedding and relativization The evolution of language Sociolinguistics and language policy Philosophy of language Professor Arsenijevic employs formal methods in his research, primarily generative grammar and formal semantics, while remaining open to functional considerations when appropriate. His empirical approach combines speaker introspection, corpus analysis, and experimental methods depending on the research question. He is an active member of the "Dimensions of Europe" profile area and participates in the "Heterogeneity and cohesion" and "Language and Plurality" research networks at the University of Graz. His recent publications (2022-2025) demonstrate consistent focus on verbal aspect, agreement phenomena, and morphosyntactic structures in Western South Slavic languages. His work bridges theoretical linguistic frameworks with concrete empirical data, including the development of specialized resources like the WeSoSlaV database for the Western South Slavic verbal system. His research shows particular attention to theme vowels, secondary imperfectivization, and morphosyntactic variation across Slavic languages. Professor Arsenijevic maintains an active research agenda with numerous publications each year, reflecting his significant contribution to the field of Slavic linguistics. His work connects theoretical linguistics with practical applications in language teaching and language policy.
