User:LaPrecieuse

Who I am
I have undergraduate and graduate degrees in English and a minor in Geology. For the moment, I'll mostly be making small grammar and spelling adjustments while I get a feel for the place, learn the ropes, and research any more substantial contributions I contemplate. I used to be fluent in French, but hesitate to classify myself as even level 3 without more regular practice. I've studied both Welsh and Latin, but have never had the opportunity to practice either, and my knowledge is therefore more theoretical than practical.

What the name means
It's a moniker I chose to poke a little fun at myself. It's from the term Précieuses, and it serves to remind me that I'm a bit pretentious and a bit affected, however literary and lively I may genuinely be.
