Shuan Osman Karim studies the historical and structural development of Iranic languages, with a strong focus on Kurdish dialects (including Hewramî, Gorani, and Soranî) as well as broader questions in linguistic typology and morphology. This research examines how grammatical features like verb tense, plurality, definiteness, and pronoun marking change over time and vary across related language varieties. Prospective students interested in historical linguistics, language typology, and understudied Iranic/Kurdish languages may find this work relevant.
Publication activity was minimal or absent in the early part of the last decade but increased noticeably from 2022 onward, with a peak in 2023 and continued output through 2025-2026.
