I am a linguist, teaching at the Department of English, National Taiwan Normal University, Taiwan. My research interests revolve around quantitative corpus-linguistic analyses on the inter-relationship between language, interaction and cognition. In particular, I am interested in the computational modeling of language use, its applications in language learning, and its implications for mental representation.
[B]ecause language is a means of communicating mental concepts between humans, understanding language requires an understanding of human mental processess.
It is the mark of a truly intelligent person to be moved by statistics.
Your connections to all the things around you literally define who you are.
學會說:「關你屁事,關我屁事。」可解決人生百分之九十九的煩惱。
