I like Latin a ton and I’d love to study it in greater depth than I already have.
I can speak French, Italian and Spanish (and English, of course), and I guess Italian is my favourite. I say that because of the literature and culture that goes along with it, and because if I said any other language, the grad school gods would kick me off the PhD waiting list.
I’m planning for my PhD thesis to study italiese, which is the Italian-English hybrid that’s developed in places where immigrants have settled (I’ll be focusing on Ontario, but it exists in other English-speaking places as well). I’ve learned a little Italiese from the plays I was in during my undergrad, but I’m really looking forward to getting more into it.
