Natàlia Server Benetó is a PhD candidate in Hispanic Linguistics at the Department of Spanish and Portuguese. Her main interests lie in Pragmatics, focusing on Interactional Linguistics, and Sociolinguistics, all applied to Catalan and Peninsular Spanish. She has researched several discourse particles of Catalan and other aspects of Pragmatics, such as humor, prefabricated orality, and translation. Her qualitative research within Sociolinguistics deals with indexicality theories applied to language attitudes, sociophonetics, and language-nation identity. She has also collaborated on three international research projects, created an asynchronous Catalan course for The Ohio State University, and organized several international conferences.
