Evi Sifaki is an Assistant Professor in Applied Linguistics at the University of Warwick. She serves as the departmental Director of Student Experience, coordinating initiatives to enhance student participation and learning environments. Her research focuses on syntax-semantics interfaces, language change in Greek and English, and applied linguistics projects involving Cognitive Metaphor Theory in economic discourse. She has taught theoretical modules like Syntax, Morphology, and Sociolinguistics, alongside applied courses such as Qualitative Research Methods. Her research explores topics including null arbitrary subjects in Greek, preposition-drop phenomena, and the conceptual metaphors underlying economic terminology. She has investigated historical language shifts and EDI-related issues like employability skills in diverse student groups. Her work bridges formal linguistic theory with sociocultural applications, contributing to both Greek and English linguistics literature. Notable publications include analyses of Greek syntax structures (e.g., VOS orders, EPP-driven mechanisms) and collaborative studies on metaphorical framing in economic language. Her review of Parametric Variation: Null Subjects in Minimalist Theory highlights her engagement with foundational linguistic theory.
