New paper! 🚨 @merinol.bsky.social and I look at variable coding length of conditional constructions in Spanish and seek to understand whether this variability is best captured by principles of communicative efficiency or production ease. Very happy to see this in print!
How long is too long? Production-internal and communicative constraints in the coding of conditionality in Spanish
This study analyzes to what extent communicative accounts, in contrast to production ease ones, can predict the variable coding length of conditional constructions in Spanish. If coding length is dete...

New preprint 📄 Cameron Morin and I showcase the potential of the LLM Claude 3.5 Sonnet for automatically annotating corpus data of the English evaluative 'consider X (Ø/as/to be) Y' construction, proposing a promising new addition to the corpus linguist's toolkit.
