Institute for Romance Linguistics | University of Vienna

Hi! I’m Owain, a PhD student at the University of Vienna. My main area of research is Spanish linguistics, with a focus on sociolinguistics, digital corpora and translation. I’m currently involved in a project researching morphosyntactic variation and change in the speech of Venezuelan migrants in German-speaking areas. I’m also working on a comprehensive Middle-Welsh – English dictionary.
