Brent Henderson

CHAIR AND ASSOCIATE PROFESSOR OF LINGUISTICS AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA

Areas of research I work on

morphosyntax

Work that informs syntactic and morphological theory, in particular the properties of case, agreement, applicatives, and possessive constructions. Most of this work centers on Bantu languages

language documentation

The documentation of endangered languages, carrying out documentation in urban and recent refugee communities. This work currently centers on the documentation of the Chimiini language

language & health

The intersection of collaborative healthcare work and language revitalization. This work centers on my involvement with Wuqu’ Kawoq, a Kaqchikel healthcare NGO in Guatemala
