Hello, hello.
My name is Jake and I am a 29 year old Englishman in Wales.
My linguistic interests are Eskimo-Aleut languages, namely Greenlandic, other dialects of Greenland and some Inuktitut and Inupiaq. I also dabble in Chinese, German, Italian, and Danish.
Feel free to write on my Talk page if you have anything you wish to discuss.
