Avelino Corral Esteban works as a Senior Lecturer in Linguistics at the Universidad Autónoma de Madrid, Spain, where he teaches courses on syntax, historical linguistics, and information structure. His main areas of research cover the interaction between syntax, semantics, and pragmatics across languages, with a focus on Native American, Romance, Germanic, and Celtic languages. He has collaborated in research projects funded by the Spanish Ministry of Science and Innovation, the Arts and Humanities Research Council in the UK, and the Advocates for Indigenous California Language Survival in the USA, and he co-leads the Honóxease Project, the aim of which is to foster the preservation and revitalization of the Cheyenne language. He also received the Phillips Fund grant for Native American Research and the Benjamin Franklin grant from the American Philosophical Society. He is the author of seven book chapters, published by Cambridge University Press, De Gruyter, John Benjamins, Peter Lang, and Routledge, and more than 20 research articles, which have appeared in major linguistics journals (Acta Linguistica Academica, Journal of Language Contact, Journal of Language and Intercultural Communication, RESLA, WORD, and Zeitschrift für Romanische Philologie).
