LiMe

Linguistic Meaning Lab

What we do

At the LiMe Lab we investigate all facets of linguistic meaning, from its most deterministic aspects to the fleeting meanings that arise during conversation. We use linguistic theory for hypothesis generation and experimental, corpus and computational methods to test such hypotheses. Our work spans the fields of formal semantics, pragmatics, syntax, psycholinguistics and cognitive science more generally.
