Just an introduction to who I am and what I do. I am a Canadian living in Hamburg, and have been doing so for 3.5 years.

For this reason, I have started a blog called,&quot;A Word on English&quot; where I will be exploring some of the idiosyncracies and interesting facts of our language. Please ...
