I am curious about what many of y'all's handles mean - not the ones that are obvious given names, but some of the others. Y'all know who you are!
I'll start:
Mine stems from when I returned to the U.S. after an 18-year 'stopover' in Brazil: I found my vocabulary hadn't suffered much during my absence, as I worked with words the entire time, but the long-term Latin influence caused my syntax to suffer intermittent involuntary inversion. That under control I think I now have.
