| self-description | I'm an Indo-Europeanist in my second year. This is my first application for the EGG, and I'm especially looking forward to the classes on phonology (Ali Idrissi's classes on Arabic in particular). Unfortunately this discipline is somewhat neglected at the linguistics department in Vienna at the time, the available courses are just nowhere near enough. Also I'm interested in language aquisition because of it's great importance for historical linguistics. |
