Hi there!
I love languages and I studied linguistics at university.

Any advice or candid comments on my English would be greatly appreciated so that I can improve it.
As for Dutch, I'm a beginner, so I'd like easy-to-understand corrections.

Here are some of my entries that might help Japanese learners:
- Useful Japanese Expressions for Lang-8: Level of Corrections

- Not-recommended Japanese Expressions on Lang-8

- Importance of Vowels in Japanese
http://lang-8.com/30490/journals/148735
- Voiced Sounds and Voiceless Sounds in Onomatopoeias

- Mnemonics for "Atsui" (hot) and "Atatakai" (warm)!

My interests in languages:
- etymology (origins of words)
- history of languages (philology)
- variety of languages (accents and dialects)
- phonology (pronunciation)
- second language acquisition
etc.

My other interests:
- Education
- Photography
- Graphic design
- Renaissance and Baroque Music
- Singing (karaoke)
- Japanese TV dramas
- Cats
etc.
