Jan’s research interests lie in the broad area of general linguistics. He has previously been involved in projects that have looked at: early Dutch loanwords in Pacific languages, linguistic borrowing, Fiji English (its features and use), symmetry in language systems, lexicography, and language teaching.

Jan’s current research projects focus on:

  • Dutch and Dutch-related placenames in Australia;
  • Language use and attitudes in Fiji;
  • The politics of language in Fiji;
  • Linguistic variation and social practice in Lebanese-Arabic background Australian youths.

For more on Jan's background and linguistic interests, see his home page in the Linguistics Department.
