My research combines theoretical and experimental methods to investigate the underlying building blocks of meaning that result in the patterns we see within and across languages. I am currently interested in the semantics of definiteness, referential expressions, quantifiers, and number. I received my PhD in 2019 at Harvard with a dissertation titled \u2018That thesis\u2019, and was a college fellow at Harvard before joining Rutgers.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400\">I grew up in Princeton, NJ and have visited Rutgers many times as a high school student for All-State Band rehearsals where I played the horn. In addition to the horn, I also love playing the\u00a0<em>haegeum<\/em>, which is a Korean string instrument. I consider myself a semi-lingual, and trust my Korean judgments a bit more. I like creating digital and physical artwork like fonts and jewelry. While I can only join virtually from Cambridge this fall, I am hoping to meet everyone in person soon!&#8221;<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><span style=\"color: #ff0000\">Welcome to Rutgers, Prof. Ahn!<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-1683\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/lgsa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2020\/08\/dorotheenstrasse-468x1024.jpg\" alt=\"dorotheenstrasse\" width=\"234\" height=\"512\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/lgsa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2020\/08\/dorotheenstrasse-468x1024.jpg 468w, https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/lgsa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2020\/08\/dorotheenstrasse-137x300.jpg 137w, https:\/\/sites.rutgers.edu\/lgsa\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/50\/2020\/08\/dorotheenstrasse.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 234px) 100vw, 234px\" \/><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center\"><\/h2>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We&#8217;re so excited to be able to officially welcome Dorothy Ahn to our department!
