English & Other Languages
Since I'm a college English major, there's no way I could leave this page out! I have always loved learning the building blocks of language, and I especially love making connections between other languages and English. I took four years of Latin in high school and will be starting my second semester of college Greek soon, and I love every minute of it. Hopefully when I graduate from college I will be able to find a position copyediting for a magazine or newspaper! Because of my love for the English language, I get a little upset when people make very obvious mistakes with it (I only get really picky when dealing with formal writing). :-) So here are some helpful language and literature sites I enjoy checking out every so often...
Online MLA Information - OWL @ Purdue University
SparkNotes! - online Cliff's Notes for studying
Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day

The Slot - A Spot for Copy Editors
