Hi, welcome to my Wiktionary user page. I've been around here since 2011, adding words in some of our less-well-covered languages. I began editing while I was learning Luxembourgish after noticing that there was almost no coverage of the language here.

Even though I've never reached proficiency in a foreign language, I still find learning different languages fascinating, and am particularly interested in etymology, pronunciation and grammar. I have a tendency to start learning a language then realising I don't actually have anybody to speak to in that language and giving up on it, so if anyone is interested in starting up a conversation in any of the languages mentioned below, I'm happy to have a go.

Languages I have worked on (current ones in bold)

I've also added entries in English (mainly regional/dialectal phrases) and French in the past. The Baltic languages I mainly worked on while I was travelling around the region in 2019 but I still go back to them occasionally.

Current tasks
  • Adding missing Polish vocabulary (mainly verbs) as I come across it.
  • Do a bit of Welsh/Latvian/Lithuanian if the fancy takes me.
