About Me
I'm a PhD candidate in the Rutgers Linguistics Department. I'm primarily interested in syntax, semantics, and their interface, as well as field work. I've mostly worked on East Asian languages and African languages so far, and also worked on Armenian and Arabic. Currently, I'm working on how meanings are represented at the left periphery, structural hierarchy and complex predicates. Feel free to email me at arielalu.ye@rutgers.edu or arielaluye@gmail.com!
