Sus áreas de investigación incluyen (i) el estudio cuantitativo de la variación morfosintáctica en dialectos del inglés hablados alrededor del mundo (principalmente las variedades de Gran Bretaña, la India y Singapur), con especial atención a los factores lingüísticos internos y externos que determinan la alternancia entre dos o más estructuras semánticamente equivalentes, y (ii) la influencia de la complejidad lingüística y de la eficiencia comunicativa en la producción oral y escrita de los hablantes de dichas variedades.
