I am engaged in doctoral research at the Department of German Language and Literature I of the University of Cologne, working within Project B04 ‘Interaction of nominal and verbal features for Differential Object Marking‘ (PIs: Marco García García & Klaus von Heusinger) as part of the Collaborative Research Center ‘Prominence in Language‘ (SFB 1252).
I am a PhD student at the University of Cologne under the supervision of Prof. Dr. Klaus von Heusinger. My dissertation investigates event structure and recursive embedding in Turkish productive causatives, exploring causativization and its interface with syntax and semantics while emphasizing the relationship between the types of causative relations and the types of causative formations using both theoretical approaches and empirical methods.
