Maria, Маша, Maruška, Mariia*
I’m a 
fourth year PhD student in General Linguistics at Charles University and a visiting researcher at Humboldt University of Berlin.
I explore semantics and pragmatics of polar questions with the main focus on Russian, Czech and other Slavic languages. My research is a part of the QueSlav project. I work with theoretical, corpus-based, and experimental methods, and have recently become increasingly interested in computational approaches to language. The person who navigates me through my studies (aka my advisor) is Radek Šimík.
From August 2024 to October 2026, I’ll be in Berlin thanks to a DAAD scholarship and the CRC 1412 Register fellowship 
*Mariia is an ‘official’ spelling of my name on legal documents (diplomas, passport and so on). I don’t like it whatsoever, so I use Maria in publications. More about transliteration here.
