[edit] User Name

Queson is a word play on my first name (Jason) which cannot be pronounced using standard Spanish phonemes.

[edit] Spanish

I am studying Spanish to keep up with my nephews. Mi cuñada es puertorriqueña y ya ellos hablan más español que yo. El mayor tiene tres años y quiere a su tío. My vocabulary is getting pretty decent and I can read most things in Spanish. I translated "Buenas Noches, Luna" for my nephew last week. ;) However, (as was the case with French in high school) I have a hard time with comprehension. My sister-in-law's mother helps me practice, but she has to speak very slowly or I cannot understand her.

I have an interest in all languages and learning Spanish has given me a better insight into the weird world of English. I plan to try to learn Esperanto once my Spanish improves.

My user name can also be translated to mean "big cheese" Cheese being one of my favorite snacks. ;) It can also be mean "what are they?", but I don't think that makes much sense.

[edit] Motivation

I use Wikipedia mainly for reading articles when I need a quick break from work. I created an account to correct spelling errors and typos. I visited Culebra this last summer, so I expanded that article. I am also looking for pages in bad need of better layouts. When you stack all the pictures on the right side of the screen you can get alot of ugly white space.
