I am a DPhil candidate reading General Linguistics at the University of Oxford. As part of my doctoral research, I investigate the principles and operations used by the human mind to assemble complex words out of smaller units of sound and meaning. The questions I pursue include the following: Does the structure of words obey the same linguistic laws as the structure of sentences? What is the relationship between the structure of words and their interpretation? How are simple and complex words associated with grammatical concepts, on the one hand, and with conceptual knowledge, on the other? In order to address these questions, I look at the expression of events in Slavic and Germanic languages, with particular emphasis on my native Polish. I examine how verbs and particles encode culminated, iterated and ongoing events. I also inquire about the grammatical source of the event interpretation: Is it the verbal category or something more abstract? The ultimate goal is to develop an explicit model of how a hierarchical representation of meaning is mapped onto a sequence of prefixes, roots and suffixes, and what this can tell us about the underlying structure of human language and thought.

我是牛津大学普通语言学阅读博士生。作为我博士研究的一部分，我研究了人类大脑使用的原理和操作，以从较小的声音和意义单元中组合出复杂的单词。我所追求的问题包括：单词的结构是否遵循与句子结构相同的语言规律？词语的结构和它们的解释之间有什么关系？简单词和复杂词是如何一方面与语法概念相关联，另一方面又与概念知识相关联的？为了解决这些问题，我研究了斯拉夫语和日耳曼语对事件的表达，特别强调了我的母语波兰语。我研究动词和粒子编码的高潮，迭代和正在进行的事件。我还询问了事件解释的语法来源：它是动词范畴还是更抽象的东西？最终目标是开发一个明确的模型，说明意义的层次表示如何映射到前缀、词根和后缀的序列上，以及这可以告诉我们人类语言和思想的底层结构。
