Research
She initially devoted her interest to the following areas of research: history of linguistic thought, with a focus on 19th century linguistics; linguistic prehistory and protohistory within the framework of the macro-comparison of language families; metalinguistics of linguistics, with work dedicated to the metalinguistic usages of certain trends of linguistic research as well as individual scholars, also considering their translation implications.
