Alex García Laguía
I am a linguist working on the documentation of Alta Language. I have lived mostly in Brussels and Spain, and since 2009, in Beijing, where I teach Spanish at Instituto Cervantes and Tsinghua University, and learn Mandarin Chinese.
I worked previously on Diola, a language spoken in West Africa, and wrote a dissertation describing two processes of grammaticalization in the Oussouye dialect, the Diola Kassa.
I am interested in the world's linguistic diversity, and in contributing to the preservation of endangered languages by documenting and describing languages and by learning about how to support their transmission.
I am currently working on the documentation and support of Norhtern Alta language.
