    Actually, "Fry" would be "Fwu", not "Fwv", in Alienese II. "Y" is 24, not 25.

    @codeman38: Thanks for the correction. Although it's a bit frustrating to know after spending a good half hour working it out manually I still got it wrong...


    Anyway, fixed now.

    I sorta feel Tolkien deserves a mention. Didn't he come up with a couple of languages for his books?

    @Illogic: Check out the end of the second paragraph. Tolkien isn't science fiction, but any discussion of speculative fiction linguistics has to acknowledge him.

    I don't speak Klingon, but I do know more than a few Mando'a words and phrases. Hurry up with that dictionary already!

    @Smeagol92055: I need to relearn Klingon. I only remember the insults. Not having anyone to speak it with, I fall out of practice.


    Though it drives the ladies wild.
