Leelo Keevallik is a professor at Linköping University, Sweden, and has worked on analyzing language and the body in different linguistic and cultural contexts. She has analyzed dance classes, pilates sessions, human-robot interaction, how people shovel dung together, and how temporary job commuters manage the linguistic demands of their work life in a different EU country. The topics include speech prosody to coordinate action, non-lexical vocalizations in between bodily concerns and social action, and the building of turns through both syntactic and embodied means. She has been responsible for tens of hours of fieldwork and done hundreds of hours of multimodal transcription/analysis that has led to the central theoretical question: where does language begin and end?
