Rwy'n aelod o'r Ganolfan Ymchwil Iaith a Chyfathrebu.
Rwy'n ieithydd ac yn ieithydd corpws yn bennaf, yn edrych ar sut mae iaith fel y'i defnyddir gan siaradwyr ac awduron mewn cyd-destunau go iawn yn gweithio. Mae fy ngwaith yn ddamcaniaethol yn bennaf ac o safbwynt ieithyddol, gwybyddol sy'n seiliedig ar ddefnydd yn fras , gan ddefnyddio dull adeiladu o ymdrin â strwythur ieithyddol.
Fy niddordeb ymchwil penodol yw agweddau amrywiol ar iaith fformiwlaidd (troeon ymadrodd cyffredin, ymadroddeg) ac yn natur gymdeithasol a diwylliannol iaith a sut mae hyn yn dangos mewn strwythur ieithyddol, newid iaith ac mewn meysydd eraill megis trafodaethau cyhoeddus.
Ar hyn o bryd, rwy'n is-lywydd EUROPHRAS, Cymdeithas Ymadroddeg Ewrop, ac rwy'n un o sylfaenwyr 'Rhwydwaith Corpus Caerdydd' ieithyddion corpws yng Nghaerdydd. Rwyf hefyd yn aelod o'r Rhwydwaith Diwylliannau Digidol yng Nghaerdydd ac yn aelod o Fwrdd Golygyddol Gwasg Prifysgol Caerdydd.
Fi yw Cyfarwyddwr Pwnc Ymchwil Ôl-raddedig y Ganolfan Ymchwil Iaith a Chyfathrebu ac yn Uwch Gymrawd o Academi Addysg Uwch y DU, yn ogystal ag aelod o Academi Gymraeg Prifysgol Caerdydd.
Cyn dod i Gaerdydd, bues i'n dysgu yn Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin a chyn hynny hefyd ym Mhrifysgol Gorllewin Lloegr, Prifysgol Basel, yn ogystal â Phrifysgol Corea a Phrifysgol Gwangju.

Ymchwil
My primary research interests include:
- formulaic language and constructionist approaches to grammar
- corpus linguistic and quantitative approaches to linguistic research, including computational methods
- historical linguistics, particularly recent and ongoing change and motivation in linguistic change
- language, culture and society, particularly social and cultural aspects of linguistic structure
Currently, I am working on a monograph on formulaic language, linguistic change and socio-cultural change. I am also currently a co-investigator on a Wellcome Trust funded project investigating linguistic precursors of dementia where I am involved principally in automating and deriving various linguistic metrics from large amounts of texts written by participants in the study.
From 2013 to 2014, I was the sole investigator of an SNSF-funded project on the universality of formulaic language. This project looked at how formulaic language manifests itself in languages of morphologically different type using a 30-million word corpus of Wikipedia texts.
Addysgu
Ar lefel israddedig, y rhan fwyaf o flynyddoedd, byddaf yn ymgynnull ac yn addysgu'r modiwl trydedd flwyddyn 'Ymadroddion mewn Theori a Chymhwyso' (SE1421) a/neu rwy'n cynnull ac yn addysgu ar y modiwlau 'How Language Works 1' (SE1113) a 'How Language Works 2' (SE1114) sy'n fodiwlau rhagarweiniol i astudio iaith.
Ar lefel ôl-raddedig, rwy'n addysgu'r modiwl MA ar Ddulliau Ymchwil Meintiol mewn ieithyddiaeth (SET013), yn ogystal â blociau achlysurol ar briodoli awduriaeth fforensig fel rhan o'r modiwl Ieithyddiaeth Fforensig 2 (SET002).
Ymhellach, rwyf wedi dysgu 'Cyflwyniad i UNIX/Linux' yn academi ddoethurol Prifysgol Caerdydd a'r 'Gweithdy Cyflwyniad i Ystadegau' yn yr Ysgol Saesneg, Cydlynu ac Athroniaeth.
Yn y gorffennol, rwyf wedi dysgu rhannau o fodiwl ar 'Darllen ac Ysgrifennu yn yr Oes Ddigidol' (SE1112) yn ogystal â modiwlau ar Gaffael Ail Iaith ac amryw gyrsiau ieithyddiaeth rhagarweiniol ac uwch ar gystrawen, semanteg, pragmateg, morffoleg, seineg a ffonoleg yn ogystal â gweithdai ar bynciau ieithyddol ac ystadegau corpws-ieithyddol, cyfrifiadol.
Bywgraffiad
Derbyniais fy ngradd BA o Brifysgol Brunel a'm MA mewn Ieithyddiaeth o'r Ysgol Astudiaethau Dwyreiniol ac Affricanaidd (SOAS, Prifysgol Llundain). Wedi hynny, gweithiais fel darlithydd mewn Iaith Saesneg ym Mhrifysgol Gwangju a Phrifysgol Corea, y ddau yng Ngweriniaeth Korea, cyn dechrau fy ymchwil PhD yn 2008. Derbyniais fy PhD mewn Ieithyddiaeth Gyffredinol o Brifysgol Basel yn 2013. Yn dilyn hynny, roeddwn i'n ddarlithydd rhan-amser (Lehrbeauftragter) ym Mhrifysgol Basel ac yn ymchwilydd ôl-ddoethurol ac yn ddarlithydd rhan-amser (Lehrbeauftragter) yn Humboldt-Universität zu Berlin, ac yn ddiweddarach yn dysgu'n rhan-amser ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd a Phrifysgol Gorllewin Lloegr yn ogystal â bod yn uchelgyhuddydd ôl-ddoethurol ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd. Deuthum yn ddarlithydd llawn amser ym Mhrifysgol Caerdydd yn 2015 ac yn Uwch Ddarlithydd yn 2019.

Meysydd goruchwyliaeth
Rwy'n croesawu datganiadau o ddiddordeb gan ddarpar fyfyrwyr PhD sydd â diddordeb mewn gweithio ym meysydd:
- Ymadroddeg / Iaith Fformiwlaidd
- Gramadeg Adeiladu
- Iaith a Diwylliant, gan gynnwys perthnasedd ieithyddol
- Newid iaith
- pynciau ieithyddol corpws eraill gydag elfen feintiol
Nid wyf yn goruchwylio gwaith ar bynciau cymhwysol yn unig heb agwedd ddamcaniaethol bwysig, fel gwaith sy'n cynnig ymchwilio i faterion cymhwysol yn unig mewn addysgu iaith. Oherwydd fy mod yn goruchwylio nifer o brosiectau, efallai na fyddaf bob amser ar gael i ymgymryd â goruchwylio prosiectau newydd hyd yn oed pan fyddant o fewn yr ardaloedd a amlinellir uchod.
