Before you write, please read my FAQs page.

Language

You can write to me in English, français, Deutsch, español, italiano, português, Esperanto, Cymraeg, Gaeilge, Gàidhlig, Gaelg, or 中文 (繁體或简体). I can read these languages, but can't write them equally well, so may reply in English.

Answers

I will do my best to answer your questions, to make the corrections you suggest and/or to add the new information you send or request. Please be patient as this may take some time. Occasionally messages go astray, so if you're expecting a reply and haven't received one within a week or so, try contacting me again.

Translations and transliterations

I can transliterate names into a variety of alphabets and writing systems, and I can translate from languages I know well (French, Welsh, Irish, Scottish Gaelic and Manx) into English, and to some extent into those languages.

Please note: there is a difference between translating and transliterating a name. Translating a name involves finding its meaning and then trying to find a name with the same or a similar meaning in another language. Transliteration involves using a different writing system to represent the sounds of the name.
