Lotte Sommerer is a historical, functional-cognitive linguist who works on morphosyntactic variation and change in Modern English, Middle English and Old English. She subscribes to a usage-based, constructional theory of morphosyntax (CCxG) that does full justice to functional and cognitive constraints, takes account of variation and gives equal weight to form and function in order to explain the shape of and changes in a linguistic system.
Together with Stefan Hartmann (University of Düsseldorf) she is the Editor-in-Chief of the open access online journal Constructions. Orchid ID: 0000-0001-5170-5308
