Hey there! My name is Gustavo Góngora, although you may know me better by Góngora (in the past, Gustavo86). I'm a White Latin American born and raised in Uruguay and currently living in Spain (Southern Europe).

I also study English Linguistics at university and I have two certificates from Cambridge University, which makes me able to undergo a quite good level of communication. I'm always learning new things, so you are likely to find a couple of mistakes in my compositions, the same as some grammar imperfections that you are welcome to correct at your entire convenience, with any kind of comments you consider necessary to mention in your reports. Finally, I should say I'm a Spanish native speaker, the reason why I've translated some interesting articles from English into the former. If you want to leave a message, just do it! As I told you above, if I have joined this page is because I'm trying to improve my language skills and the only way I have to learn from my current mistakes is on your hands, so don't hesitate to correct some spelling atrocities or whatever you deem appropriate.

For more information about my contributions to Wikipedia, click on the word "Español", where you will see a large list of issues in Spanish, my common language and daily tool of expression. Soon, I'll be writing my first articles in English but until then I beg for your patience and comprehension. Greetings, Góngora
