​Research


My research is mainly in the field of Irish English, including books, articles and book chapters on literary dialect, pragmatic/discourse markers, language and emigration, and the use of corpora to investigate language in context.

I have been involved in different research projects dealing with intercultural communication, language and identity, teaching in the multicultural classroom, language teaching, and student mobility. ​

My work includes collaboration with various colleagues. Over the last few years I have worked with Prof. Kevin McCafferty on the Corpus of Irish English Correspondence, a project originally funded by the Norwegian Research Council.

I am a member of the Steering Committee of the Irish English Network: https://www.irish-english.net/
