Hi, I'm Valerre (pronounced Va-lair)! I've been lurking on the Language discussion board for a couple of weeks and have yet to post until today.

I started reading the comic about 3 weeks ago, so I'm still relatively new. Ironically, I found the comic via a Mental Floss post about Minna's language family tree.

Welcome, Valerre - actually, quite a few readers have come to us via that amazing graphic of Minna's.

Welcome, Valerre! I'm not a qualified cookie-giver, but mine are more legit than most (some are made of actual squirrels, yikes!) Here's some cookies to munch on as you walk down the welcome-mat! :squirrelcookie:

Hello!

Oh nice :) I adapted my name from the Latin word "valere" (pronounced wa-lair-eh) which is a verb that loosely means "to be strong" or "to be victorious" with the dual meaning of "to be well." I get people in voice chats calling me variations of Valerie, Valor, etc. Haha x)
