My name is Simon, I live in Bangor in Wales and earn my living from Omniglot, an online encyclopedia of writing systems and languages. More about me.

Simon is ainm dom, tá mé i mo chónaí i mBangor sa Bhreatain Bhig, agus tá mé ag saothrú mo bheatha ó Omniglot, ciclipéid ar líne córais scríbhneoireachta agus teangacha. Níos mó fúmsa.

I am fluent in Welsh and Irish, fairly competent in Scottish Gaelic and Manx, and have a basic knowledge of Breton and Cornish. My aim with this site is to learn more about these languages, to find connections between them, and to share that knowledge with you.
I love this site. I am an American with an interest in Celtic languages and especially Proto-Brythonic and Welsh etymologies and cognates in non-Celtic languages. Keep up the good work! I will keep coming back.
So glad to know you still work in languages and helping others learn them. Tusen takk!
Simon, it’s been a pleasure for me to have had an opportunity to assist you in whatever ways I could. You’ve returned the favor many times over with all of your assistance in my own efforts. You are literally the first web site I check each day. I always wonder, “what new language has Simon unveiled today?” There is always something new and fascinating to learn and discover here.
I continue to marvel at the extraordinary level and attention to detail you have lavished on this site. It’s a remarkable accomplishment, and you have my congratulations.
