Hi! I'm an undergraduate student at Yale University, majoring in the humanities. I joined Wikipedia on April 12, 2004. My interests include the English language, foreign languages (in particular, French and Russian), Belgium, history, music, and literature.

Le roi fronça le sourcil, regarda la signature du placet et vit le nom écrit ainsi : Lesgle. Cette orthographe peu bonapartiste toucha le roi et il commença à sourire. Sire, reprit l'homme au placet, j'ai pour ancêtre un valet de chiens, surnommé Lesgueules. Ce surnom a fait mon nom. Je m'appelle Lesgueules, par contraction Lesgle, et par corruption L'Aigle.—Ceci fit que le roi acheva son sourire. – Victor Hugo, Les Misérables, III.4.1.

When I first started using this pseudonym, for some reason I added an s, and that spelling has stuck. It is pronounced [lɛgl].
