Rwy'n ieithydd sydd â diddordeb arbennig mewn cysyniadoli beth sy'n digwydd ar ryngwyneb gwybyddiaeth, rhyngweithio cymdeithasol a'r system ieithyddol. Mae'r rhan fwyaf o fy ymchwil wedi bod ar iaith fformiwla ac ar gyfathrebu dementia (gweler tab 'Ymchwil') gyda phwyslais cryf ar esboniad, yn hytrach na disgrifiad.
Mae fy llyfr The Dynamics of Dementia Communication (2020, Gwasg Prifysgol Rhydychen) wedi ennill dwy wobr fawreddog.
Enillydd Gwobr Llyfr 2021 Cymdeithas Ieithyddiaeth Gymhwysol Prydain
Sylw gan feirniaid BAAL: "Mae hon yn gyfrol drawiadol sy'n adeiladu fframwaith ymbarél eang iawn ar gyfer deall cyfathrebu dementia, maes o bwysigrwydd cynyddol yn ein cymdeithas. Mae'r llyfr yn cyflwyno rhai cwestiynau mawr a beiddgar iawn am y ffordd orau o gyfathrebu â phobl sy'n byw gyda dementia o'r cychwyn cyntaf, ac wrth i'r gwaith fynd rhagddo, mae'r cwestiynau hyn yn cael eu hateb mewn ffordd fanwl a manwl."
Ail yng Ngwobr Llyfr Cymdeithas Ieithyddiaeth Gymhwysol America 2021-22
Sylw gan feirniaid AAAL: "Mae'r llyfr hwn yn tour de force rhyngddisgyblaethol wedi'i ysgrifennu'n hyfryd sy'n canolbwyntio ar brofiad dynol dementia ac, yn benodol, sut mae'r salwch yn effeithio ar gyfathrebu, i'r person sy'n byw gyda dementia a'u interlocutors. Gyda chanllawiau sy'n seiliedig ar dystiolaeth ar sut i gefnogi a gofalu am bobl â dementia, bydd yn apelio nid yn unig at ieithyddion, ond hefyd at weithwyr meddygol a gofalwyr. Mae'r llyfr yn cynnig beirniadaeth o gysyniadau poblogaidd am glefydau dementia a'u symptomau. Mae pob un o'r penodau yn arddangos - ac yn galw am- tosturi ac empathi diffuant i bobl â dementia ac i'w gofalwyr a'u interlocutors. Ar ben hynny, mae'r llyfr yn adlewyrchu trywydd a thwf yr ymchwilydd fel arbenigwr yn y maes trwy adeiladu ar ei hymchwil gynharach ar iaith fformiwla. Fel y cyfryw, mae'n enghraifft ysbrydoledig o sut y gall arbenigedd mewn un maes (iaith fformiwla) adeiladu pontydd i feysydd eraill o ieithyddiaeth gymhwysol (iaith mewn gofal iechyd)"
Rwy'n aelod o'r Ganolfan Ymchwil Iaith a Chyfathrebu a'r Rhwydwaith Ymchwil Iaith Fformiwla

Ffocws canolog fy ymchwil yw datblygu modelau arloesol sy'n gallu cyfrif am batrymau a arsylwir mewn iaith. Fy mhrif gyfraniad ar hyn o bryd yw deall achosion amharu ar gyfathrebu pan fydd rhywun yn byw gyda dementia - nid yn unig sut mae'r niwed sylfaenol i'r ymennydd yn effeithio ar gynhyrchu a dealltwriaeth iaith, ond hefyd beth sy'n digwydd i normau rhyngweithio cymdeithasol pan fyddant yn rhyngweithio â'r aflonyddwch gwybyddol a achosir gan ddementia. Mae'r gwaith hwn ar ddementia wedi datblygu o ac yn adeiladu ar fy ngwaith blaenorol dros nifer o flynyddoedd, wrth nodweddu iaith fformiwla (prefabricated wordstrings).
Mae iaith fformiwla yn cwmpasu llinynnau o eiriau sydd:
- ymddangos yn cael ei storio'n gyfan gwbl yn y cof er hwylustod (e.e. diolch yn fawr iawn; yr hyn rwy'n ei olygu yw)
- yn arbennig o aml yn y testun (e.e. yng nghanol ?)
- fod â phwysigrwydd cymdeithasol i bobl benodol (e.e. breichiau presennol)
- yn cael eu cofio neu eu hailadrodd,
- a/neu nad ydynt yn gyfansoddiadol o ran ffurf neu ystyr (e.e. ar y cyfan; gwae).
Gan dynnu ar arsylwadau o iaith fformiwla mewn amrywiaeth o gyd-destunau, rwyf wedi datblygu modelau o sut mae iaith yn cael ei dysgu, ei phrosesu a'i storio, ac wedi eu cymhwyso, trwy arbrofion ac ymchwiliadau eraill, i faterion mewn caffael iaith gyntaf ac ail, anabledd iaith ac esblygiad iaith. Rwyf wedi ysgrifennu am rôl iaith fformiwla mewn cyfieithu, y gallu i iaith fformiwla yn sylweddol i wella ansawdd rhyngweithio siaradwr nad yw'n frodorol, a natur iaith fformiwla mewn anhwylderau iaith gan gynnwys Clefyd Alzheimer.
Yn 2014, dechreuais weithio ar fodel newydd o sut mae'r weithred o gyfathrebu yn rhyngwynebu â phrosesu iaith. Mae'n tynnu theori gymdeithasol-rhyngweithiol a phragmatig ynghyd â modelau gwybyddiaeth, i ddangos sut mae ffurfiau o iaith yn cael eu siapio gan yr hyn y mae angen i ni ei gyflawni trwy gyfathrebu, a sut mae iaith yn cael ei defnyddio i wneud diffygion da mewn cyfathrebu pan fydd y siaradwr o dan bwysau gwybyddol. Mae'r model yn cyfuno fy ngwaith blaenorol ar iaith fformiwla, Clefyd Alzheimer a chaffael ail iaith, ac mae wedi'i gynllunio i gynnig cyfleoedd ar gyfer ymyriadau arbrofol mewn sefyllfaoedd lle mae cyfathrebu fel arfer yn cael ei danseilio gan allu gwybyddol llai a / neu broblemau mynediad geiriadurol, gan gynnwys Alzheimer's a dysgu ieithoedd tramor ar ôl plentyndod. Mae'r model yn cael ei ddisgrifio'n fanwl yn fy llyfr 2020 The Dynamics of Dementia Communication (Gwasg Prifysgol Rhydychen), https://global.oup.com/academic/product/the-dynamics-of-dementia-communication-9780190917807?cc=ru&lang=en&#.
Yn seiliedig ar y model, rydw i wedi sgriptio tair ffilm animeiddiedig am agweddau ar gyfathrebu dementia (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC6kMlO8mkB09GNCLm1zbaHQ). Mae Understanding the challenges of dementia communication (2017, 16mun) yn cyflwyno syniadau allweddol o fy ymchwil yn nhermau lleyg. Mae Dementia: y 'clefyd cyfathrebu' (2018, 18 munud) yn cynnig syniadau ymarferol ar gyfer mynd i'r afael â chyfathrebu mewn ffyrdd newydd. Ffocws cyfathrebu Dementia ar draws ffiniau iaith (2020, 31 munud) yw pan nad yw'r gofalwr a'r cleient yn rhugl yn yr un iaith. Wedi'i ariannu gan Gyngor Ymchwil Norwy, mae gan y ffilm hon fersiwn Norwyaidd hefyd. Mae'r fersiynau Saesneg i gyd wedi'u lleisio gan yr actor Prydeinig Syr Tony Robinson.
Gyda fy nghydweithrediad, mae Six Degrees Social Enterprise yn Salford, y DU, wedi datblygu gweithdai i gefnogi gofalwyr proffesiynol a theuluol pobl â dementia sy'n defnyddio fy syniadau i fynd i'r afael â'r achosion a helpu i leddfu'r straen o fod yn ofalwr yn y cyd-destun hwn.
Rwyf wedi archwilio theori ieithyddol ar y ffiniau: Datblygiad macro-theori sy'n cysylltu ffurf a swyddogaeth ieithyddol ag agweddau gwybyddol a chymdeithasol ymddygiad iaith. Wedi'u gwreiddio yn y modelau o gaffael a defnyddio iaith fformiwla (gweler uchod) yn fwy diweddar maent wedi ehangu i archwilio'r 'gair' fel ffenomen gynhenid amwys, iaith fel system sylfaenol hybrid, a theori newydd o sut mae pwysau gwybyddol a chymdeithasol ar gynhyrchu iaith yn cael eu rheoli i gyflwr cyson o rhuglder gan ddefnyddio opsiynau wrth ddewis ffurfiau.
Yn y gorffennol rwyf wedi ymchwilio i ynganiad hanesyddol, gan ail-greu Saesneg ac ieithoedd eraill ar gyfer perfformiadau a recordiadau o gerddoriaeth gynnar. Yn y rôl hon rwyf wedi cynghori ar dros 80 o recordiadau CD masnachol (gan gynnwys rhai enillwyr gwobrau rhyngwladol), darllediadau'r BBC a chyngherddau cyhoeddus mawr.
Mewn llinyn ar wahân o ymchwil a hyfforddiant, rwyf wedi archwilio natur arbenigedd ymchwil yn y gwyddorau cymdeithasol, yn enwedig 'meddwl fel arbenigwr'. Cefnogwyd y gwaith hwn, gyda Mike Wallace fel cyd-I, gan Wobr Menter Datblygu Ymchwilwyr ESRC tair blynedd (gweler Wray & Wallace 2011 am gyfrif o'r egwyddorion). Mae Mike a minnau hefyd yn gyd-awduron Critical Reading and Writing for Postgraduates ac yn cynnal gweithdai ar gyfer PhD ac ymchwilwyr ar ddechrau gyrfa ar y pwnc hwn. Yn 2010 enillais ddau gymhwyster hyfforddi a datblygais frand o hyfforddi sy'n addas ar gyfer cyd-destun ymchwil y brifysgol.

Cymorth i fyfyrwyr a meithrin gallu
Yn 2002 sefydlais gymdeithas anffurfiol o ymchwilwyr o'r enw Rhwydwaith Ymchwil Iaith Fformiwla (FLaRN), sydd â mwy na 200 o aelodau. Mae'n anelu'n bennaf at fyfyrwyr PhD ond mae ganddo hefyd lawer o aelodau mewn swyddi academaidd. Os oes gennych ddiddordeb mewn ymuno, anfonwch e-bost [email protected] am wybodaeth. Ers 2004, mae FLaRN wedi cael sawl cynhadledd bob dwy flynedd, y diweddaraf yn cael ei chynnal gan yr Adran Ieithyddiaeth Saesneg, Prifysgol Vilnius, Lithwania, Mehefin 28-30 2016.

Yn 1999 cefais fy ngwneud yn uwch gymrawd ymchwil ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd, ac wedyn yn Ddarllenydd, Athro ac Athro Ymchwil.
Roeddwn yn Gyfarwyddwr Ymchwil ar gyfer yr Ysgol Cyfathrebu Saesneg ac Athroniaeth rhwng 2004 a 2016.
