Question.

Have you ever wanted to learn a language just for the sake of its orthography?

Yeah. Me too.

That's why Welsh is cool. And Walloon. And, of course... Klingon!

I actually tried teaching myself a bit of Russian a while back because the Cyrillic alphabet is so neat... I didn't get very far, because trying to keep all the declensions straight was giving me a headache, but at least I can puzzle out a few key words on Russian web sites, if nothing else.

What do Welsh and Walloon look like? They have non-Roman alphabets?

[conuly]

No, they don't. I have a link to a walloon dictionary on my links list.
