Biography

I have held a research and teaching position in English Language & Linguistics at the University of Glasgow since 2009. From 2004-2008, I was Research Associate for the Scottish Corpus of Texts & Speech (SCOTS) and, briefly, Corpus of Modern Scottish Writing (CMSW) projects, which created large online corpora of texts in Scottish English and varieties of Scots. Before moving to Glasgow, I was a Teaching Fellow in French at the University of St Andrews, where I also completed my PhD in French linguistics.

 

Research interests

My research interests centre around semantics and metaphor, and also encompass corpus linguistics, collocation and phraseology, and translation.  

Projects which I have run or am associated with include:

Mapping Metaphor with the Historical Thesaurus (Twitter @MappingMetaphor)

Metaphor in the Curriculum

Scottish Corpus of Texts & Speech

Corpus of Modern Scottish Writing
