Languages

During my childhood, I studied Chinese, French, Latin and VCE English Language formally, and from there, I began a passion for learning languages and the potential that it yields.

Some languages I will cover are English (of course), Chinese, French, Latin, Ancient Greek and German.

I will also look at my project @medetymology, language pedagogy, the history of English, the evolution of scripts and how all of these interlink.

• French and its effect on my language learning journey

  French was the second foreign language I learnt. I had always wanted to learn French, and at high school I had the opportunity to do so. I excelled in it, maybe because of natural ability. French taught me not only an entirely new way of thinking of languages, including English and its own morphology and syntax, nor expanded my bilingual vocabulary (I will expand upon this later) immensely, but also taught me the importance and benefits of understanding syntax.

  Languages are amazing. I have been privileged enough to know a number of languages and am developed this into a passion for learning languages and linguistics in general.
