> as a hobbiest

Grammar note: "hobbyist". "-ist" is the suffix for, "A person who does this thing"; "-est" is the suffix for changing an adjective into a superlative: "Yours is hobby, his is hobbier, mine is the hobbiest."



Non-native speaker here, so.. thanks for the input! I appreciate that. :)
