Hi, I'm Rai. I am currently waiting for an assessment via Right to Choose with Psychiatry UK - referral was confirmed by my GP on 3rd February. I'm 42 and transgender ftm. I'm studying a BA in Education Studies with TESOL (Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages) and planning a MA by Thesis related to translanguaging afterwards.
I am going through a lot of change and 'new' at the moment and really struggling so I thought I should look for some peer support.
I enjoy learning about languages and I am currently studying Mandarin, Klingon, Swahili and Hungarian - I like learning how languages work rather than how to speak them. I am also a bit of a Dr Who fan.
I would love to have some people to talk to who share my interests.
Not sure what else to say.
Hello Rai. I am Number.
Klingon....for real? I know that fans speak it at sci-fi conventions, but on a TESOL course?!
Welcome to this place.
Hey!
Klingon isn't part of my course, but it is is part of a research project I'm working on (sort of). I love that it is based on the culture unlike Vulcan which was designed to lip sinc with English, originally. I really enjoy the cultural aspects of language and Klingon is the ultimate language in that way.
Thank you for the welcome
Well thank you for proving that the God of Google is only as powerful as its user......which is why Google is a dangerous god!

Something that a Klingon would never say...
