Iris Kamil

I am a linguist and Assyriologist, specialising in theoretical and historical linguistics, as well as comparative Semitic and Afroasiatic linguistics. My main focus lies in the synchronic and diachronic analysis of the morpho-semantic and morpho-syntactic interfaces of Semitic templatic morphology.

Methodologically, I combine theoretical linguistic frameworks with the historical-comparative method, the philological study of sources, as well as frameworks in the semantics-pragmatics interface.
