Anissa Daoudi
Anissa Daoudi is a Research Associate in Applied Linguistics/Psycholinguistics at the University of Durham, School of Modern Languages and Cultures. Dr. Daoudi’s research includes learners’ strategies in decoding and encoding figurative language. Her latest project focuses on the impact of globalization on the Arabic language (both standard and vernacular Arabic). Her interest in IT-related words, collocations and phrases (at both literal and metaphorical levels) expands to analysing the effects of the sub-language, which she refers to as e-Arabic on discourse in general and the ‘gender discourse(s)’ in particular. Her most recent publications include a monograph published by Peter Lang (2011), a themed issue on ‘e-Arabic and minority voices in the MENA region’, articles and book chapters on the concept of e-Arabic.
