Trilingual Hispanic linguist from Korea

Hee Joong Choi 최 희중(希仲)

I am a joint Ph.D. student in Spanish & Portuguese Studies and the Linguistics Department at the University of Massachusetts Amherst, advised by María Biezma.

I work on Korean and varieties of Spanish, with interests in formal pragmatics, intonational meaning, and biased polar questions.
