Research Interests
Broadly, I am interested in articulatory and acoustic phonetics, particularly in the interface between phonetics and phonology in Arabic. My work so far has been related to Arabic post-velar sounds and emphatics using ultrasound technology and acoustic analysis.
I am also interested in synchronic metrical phonology and related segmental processes in Bedouin Arabic dialects of the Arabian within lexical phonology and morphology framework. This includes the processes of syncope (High Vowel Deletion, Trisyllabic Elision, low vowel deletion) and epenthesis.
