Lauren Winans

Hi, I'm Lauren. I'm a second year graduate student in Linguistics at UCLA. My office is Campbell 3103B, and my email address is lauren.winans@ucla.edu.

Research

My main research interests are semantics and syntax. I'm specifically interested in cross-linguistic strategies for expressing polarity, questions, and logical connectives. I am currently writing my Masters thesis on disjunction in Egyptian Arabic, advised by Jessica Rett and Ed Keenan. This project involves conducting fieldwork with language consultants in Los Angeles and Cairo.
