Her research focuses on Russian and Slavic linguistics, with particular attention to morphosyntax, lexicon, and phraseology. In this area, she studies phraseological units from a cognitive perspective and within the framework of Construction Grammar, as evidenced by her coordination of the Frame project (with F. Mollica), numerous national and international publications, the monograph Lexicon and Phraseology in the Post-Revolutionary Decade (2018), and the co-edited volume Contrastive Phraseology. Languages and Cultures in Comparison (with F. Mollica, 2020). Her recent work explores phraseological units as discourse markers and the image component of idiomatic expressions.Inizio modulo
