[edit] Basic data

My real name is Julien Pourtet, possibly extensible to Julien Bernard Pierre Philippe Pourtet, but there is absolutely no use to call me so. I was born on December 28, 1983 in Bordeaux, France. My native language is French. I can speak a few languages, more or less fluently, such as English, Spanish, Italian and German.

[edit] Studies

I am studying English linguistics and literature as well as general linguistics. I spent my first year of studies at the university of Bordeaux, France. I was a second-year exchange student of the Erasmus programme at the English department of the University of Fribourg, Switzerland where I attended Professor Peter Trudgill's lectures and seminars, for my major interest is in linguistics and dialectology. I am currently completing my BA in English at the University of Lausanne, Switzerland. My studies are now more focused on the sociolinguistic aspect of linguistics. I am currently working, as part of a seminar exam, on a fieldwork study on the effects of bilingualism at school.
