Hannah Little smells of libraries, she drinks far too much coffee and, on occasion, wine. She spent her formative years in Stockton-on-Tees in the North-East of England and as a result sounds a bit like a Geordie (you probably shouldn’t point this out to her though). She has an MSc in The Evolution of Language and Cognition from the University of Edinburgh and a BA in English Language and Linguistics form the University of York. Her favourite language is Hungarian. She self identifies as a ‘geek’, not only in the modern sense of the word: “One who is perceived to be overly obsessed with one or more things including those of intellectuality”, but also the former meaning of: “A carnival performer often billed as a wild man whose act usually includes biting the head off a live chicken, bat, snake or bugs.” (She’s a vegetarian really).
Sometimes she blogs about less language based things over at The Twenty First Floor, particularly about science communication and gender equality, which together with language, make up the holy trinity of things Hannah cares about.
