User:The Linguist

Welcome to my Wikipedia user page. My username is, due to my love of languages and expression. I am an 18 year-old student in Tennessee, USA, and a lifetime resident of Murfreesboro. I am currently pursueing a bachelor's degree in Foreign Language with a minor in Linguistics from Middle Tennessee State University.

Mentalities
I am a pragmatist: something must have direct value in order for it to qualify for usefulness. Anything that doesn't have value is more or less useless.

Spelling...my biggest pet peeve
I detest bad spellers. As a linguist I believe people should learn how to, at least, speak and write their own language fluently.

However, please note that I am not a grammarian by trade; I am known to make a mistake from time to time (as rare as that may be). By putting this disclaimer here, I figure I am removing myself from intense scrutiny via my fellow wikipedians.

Special Thanks
To, as I took more than a few hints from his userpage as to how to construct mine.
