Rethinking Comparative Syntax (ReCoS)

Department of Theoretical and Applied Linguistics
 

Research

András was a research assistant on the ReCoS project, focusing on the question of how different languages realise subjects and direct objects with varying degrees of definiteness, topicality, etc.

In his 2015 dissertation, Differential object marking in Hungarian and the morphosyntax of case and agreement, András proposed a novel analysis of differential object agreement in Hungarian, and embedded it in a study on the cross-linguistic interaction of case and agreement. He is currently a post-doctoral researcher at the Research Institute for Linguistics of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences.
