YILI'S HOMEPAGE
About me
I'm Yili Xia 夏奕丽. I earned my master's degree in linguistics from Zhejiang University in China. I'm especially intrigued by syntax and semantics interface. I have been exposed to new perspectives and different theories, like phrase structure grammar and dependency grammar. I regularly write about my thoughts on linguistics in the blog. Outside of linguistics, I like to travel, exercise, pursue my hobbies, and write my diary.
