Hi, my name is Jaewon Oh, and I am from Korea. I received both my BA and MA degrees from the Department of Linguistics at Seoul National University. My research interests lie in formal semantics and the interface between semantics and pragmatics. I am interested in topics such as modality, questions, conditionals, implicature, scalarity, and focus-alternatives. What motivates me most as a linguist is intriguing analogies and puzzles in distributional patterns and the way meaning is enriched beyond the literal meaning. Besides my academic life, I am a big fan of Moomin and love crocheting (For me, it’s a kind of meditation, an outlet of creativity, and a satisfying way to feel productive ).
