Distinctions

On 8 October 2004 I was the recipient of the Festschrift:

Aertsen, H., M. Hannay and R. Lyall (eds), 2004. Words in their places: A Festschrift for J. Lachlan Mackenzie, Amsterdam: VU University Amsterdam.

On 2 April 2007 another Festschrift in my honour was published:

Hannay, M. and G.J. Steen (eds), 2007. Structural-functional studies in English grammar: In honour of Lachlan Mackenzie. Amsterdam and Philadelphia PA: Benjamins. This book has been reviewed by Francisco Gonzálvez-García.

I was awarded a Giner de los Rios fellowship to spend two months (February and March 2009) at the University of Alcalá (Spain) as a consultant for a project on autonomous learning and lexical acquisition.
