Hello! I am a PhD student at the Linguistics Department of the University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa. My research focuses on sociolinguistics, language documentation, and phonetics. More specifically, I am interested in the creation and expression of identity using Yiddish spoken by the Yiddishist community and Jewish English spoken in Australia and the US, and I am interested in ethnobotanical linguistic study of Woleaian, a Chuukic language spoken in the Federated States of Micronesia.


Feel free to reach out to me at ebreslow [at] hawaii [dot] edu if you have any questions about my research!
