Semantics, pragmatics, syntax, philosophy of language, architecture of language. Downloadable text of recent papers is available below

Linguistic theory, philosophy of language, theory of signs especially:

semantics and pragmatics (particularly presupposition and negation, ambiguity, quotation, malapropism) the architecture of the language faculty (in Minimalism especially) and its relation to other faculties of mind
the phonology-syntax interface, especially as this bears on the status and nature of functional categories and parameters
the Representational Hypothesis, which proposes that phonology should be excluded from, because representational of, objects generated by the language faculty
