I am a PhD student in semantics & pragmatics based at ZAS Berlin. I’m interested in phenomena surrounding context shift, quotativity, indexicals, not-at-issue meaning, negation, and degrees. I use mainly formal and experimental methods, and try to computate sometimes.

I generally go by and write as ari – unless you got to know me before 2017 ;)
My given name is Aarti Joshi, pronounced [aɾt̪i d͡zoʃi] (or [joʃi] in Germany).
I often have to spell it Aarati because my passport says so, but I promise you there is no “a” sound after the r! It’s at most a schwa and that’s a very unhelpful transliteration.
