Hey, guys, it's Carolyn!

Hiya!!! I got my name changed, and I just wanted to let you guys know to avoid confusion!

:-) It's me, Carolyn.

By the way, thank you to the administrator and the moderator who helped me change it! :-)

So now you're only a tiny little linguist... They say the short ones are the most feisty right?

So what's the story behind it - what's the story behind your change of name.

I mean, what's it mean?

You should have gone with Cunning Linguist, but whatever, it's all good.

1) Well, I absolutely love languages!!! They are my passion - other than teaching, of course.

2) I'm short (157 cm; that's about 62 inches, I think) and relatively petite (okay, could lose a kilo or two, but nothing out of proportion).

3) The name is an alliteration, which I think is neat. Okay, not the most creative thing I could come up with, but this isn't an essay contest. So it's all good.

4) Loquacious Linguist would probably be more applicable, but I didn't want to appear stranger than I already am. Little Linguist sounds cuter and not quite so FORMAL and ACADEMIC. Or bizarre. I'm bizarre enough in many other ways. Hehe.

5) It's more creative than just having my name there - sort of.

It's a corn flakes experience! Welcome again for the first time.

Also I have to give props to a fellow member of the double "L" alliteration gang.
