Biografia

Laia Arnaus Gil is a post-doctoral fellow in Romance Linguistics at the University of Wuppertal. She received her PhD on the early acquisition of Romance and German copula and auxiliary verbs in 2012. She worked in a research project on code-switching in early bilingualism and directed, together with Natascha Müller, the research project on early trilingualism, both funded by the German Research Foundation. She is currently leading a research project funded by the universities of Hamburg and Wuppertal to investigate Catalan, Spanish and German as heritage (HL) and majority (ML) languages. She is further working on her teaching degree (“Habilitation”) on the (early) multilingual acquisition of Romance attributive adjectives and the language-external factors promoting HL-competence. She is member of several research groups which examine early multilingualism from a linguistic perspective, family language policies and the role of different factors for HL-competence.
