Research Interests

I specialize in the cross-linguistic study of the morphosyntactic representation of

the "Defaultness" patterns, I am also investigating the mechanism of

"Grammaticalization" as represented in the morphosyntactic and morphological

awareness elements in Jordanian as well as Modern Standard Arabic. I am also

working on TEFL and TESOL framework and their cross linguistic implications.
