I'm a predoctoral researcher at the Department of Linguistics and Basque Studies and a researcher at the "HiTT Linguistics Group". Nowadays, I'm working in the project Spanish in contact with Basque: prosody and social factors, leaded by Drs. Elordieta and Romera.

 

I am interested in phonetics and phonology, especifically in prosody and intonation, as well as in sociolinguistics (language contact, linguistic attitudes...)

​

My work focuses mainly on the intonation features of Extremaduran Spanish, the variety of Spanish spoken in a western region of Spain called Extremadura. I am also concerned with the linguistic attitudes towards the variety itself and towards the Extremaduran ethnolinguistic group.
