Elena Herraiz Medina (Spanish pronunciation: [eˈlena eˈrajθ meˈðina]; born 11 November 1992), known online as Linguriosa (pronounced [liŋɡuˈɾjosa]), is a Spanish YouTuber, linguistic popularizer and Spanish-language teacher.[2][3] Since 2024, she has appeared on the TV programme Cifras y letras.

Early life and career

A native of Guadalajara, Herraiz studied Translation and Interpreting at the University of Valladolid, specializing in English and German, and went on to pursue a master's degree at the University of Alcalá, becoming a teacher of Spanish as a second language. She moved to Berlin for five years to teach Spanish.[4] In September 2019, she started the YouTube channel Linguriosa (a portmanteau of lingüista curiosa, 'curious linguist'),[5] originally dedicated to sharing teaching methods for Spanish grammar, but where she now deals with linguistic doubts and focuses on Spanish language history and etymology.[2][3][6] In early 2024, Herraiz began collaborating on the Televisión Española game show Cifras y letras (the Spanish version of Des chiffres et des lettres), broadcast on La 2, as a language expert.[2][3][7] She also started a joint podcast with YouTube medical popularizer Sandra Ortonobes (La Hiperactina), titled Tú de ciencias y yo de letras.[8]
