My native language is English and I study French, Russian and Czech at university. I'm currently studying in France after which I will be moving to Siberia to complete my year abroad. I do have knowledge of other languages, primarily Portuguese, but have also recently taken up casually studying Nāhuatl. In addition to these my "library" contains books on Latin, Polish, Icelandic, Old Church Slavonic, Swahili, Old Norse, Quechua, Ancient Greek, Sanskrit, Dutch, Spanish, Cantonese, Old English, Italian and Mandarin, however my knowledge of these is poor to say the least.

I'm back!!
