About: 

The main focus of Dr Ares Llop's research lies in microvariation and linguistic change of the Romance languages, especially Catalan and Pyrenean linguistic varieties. Her first monograph, which was awarded the Joan Sol脿 International Prize in Catalan Philology (to be published in 2020), is a new outlook on the expression of negation in Catalan and other close varieties of the Romance continuum, by means of a symbiosis of theory and data. It explores and illustrates the mechanisms and acquisition processes underlying both diachronic linguistic change as well as the micro-synchronic variation of unexplored Romance negation systems.

She has extensive experience in higher education teaching and research, having held various academic positions including at the Universitat de Barcelona, the Universitat Aut貌noma de Barcelona and at Cardiff University.

Additionally, she is interested in bridging language studies with grammar teaching, and in exploring how grammatical knowledge and theoretical insights can be transferred to the language classroom and foreign language textbooks. Her publications include articles on teaching Catalan and Spanish as a L1 and Foreign Language, as well as several L1 and Foreign Language Catalan language course books.
