Danish grammar, variation and change in 20th century Danish
My current research is part of the LANCHART Centre's project on variation and change in 20th century Danish - aiming at formulating and testing a model of language change. My part of the project concerns Danish grammar, and at present this includes studies of developments in the use of personal pronouns, participles and word order in dependent clauses in spoken Danish during the last four decades. The focus in these studies is diffusion of linguistic innovations in space and time,
intra-individual variation (in lifespan perspective as well within an
individual conversation), and the interplay between social/interactional and functional/semantic factors in explaining linguistic variation and change.
At the Faculty of Humanities my research is used as an example of the impact the humanities researchers have on society.
