Shai Cohen to Emory University

Shai Cohen (2009 UMass PhD) will be an Instructor in Hebrew in the Department of Eastern and South Asian Studies of Emory University as of this Fall. Shai has worked on presuppositions (in particular those triggered by only and too), but is also interested in the semantics of counterfactuals and conditional interrogatives. In his Hebrew classes, he teaches students to use Hebrew in a wide variety of settings, including asking for information, discussing poems, describing pictures and drawing conclusions.
