About the author

A photo of Simon Ager, author of Omniglot, taken on 26th January 2023

My name is Simon Ager, I live in Bangor in northwest Wales and earn my living from this website. I grew up in Lancashire in the northwest of England, and have also lived in France, Taiwan and Japan.

I've always been interested in languages. I studied French and German at school, and Chinese and Japanese at university, and have taught myself some others.

More details of my langauge learning adventures.

When not learning languages, I like to read, sing, write songs and tunes, play musical instruments and juggle.

By the way, in case you're wondering, my surname, Ager, is pronounced /'eɪgə/ - a as in age, ger as in lager.
