Gavin Bembridge

Postdoctoral Fellow

I earned a PhD in Linguistics from York University (Toronto, Canada) and am currently a SSHRC Postdoctoral Fellow in the School of Linguistics and Language Studies at Carleton University. My research focuses on morphosyntax, particularly verbal inflection and root suppletion. Recently, I have begun examining verbal morphology in the Celtic languages, with a particular emphasis on Scottish Gaelic.

Research Interests

Morphosyntax; signed languages (ASL), Romance languages (Spanish), and Celtic languages (Scottish Gaelic); linguistic metatheory (theory design and grammar architecture).
