From what I've heard, Latin isn't too much fun to learn , but I may be wrong.(But still much better than learning Welsh! :P) What's it like so far Kais?

latin is quite fun to learn i think, i have been doing it for 1 ys so far. you can figure out the translation for many things(eg fortis-fort-strong) because they are like the english(duh that's where english comes from) the word order is odd, but u get used to it. it goes:subject, object verb. word ending so far are the hardest part. a different word ending changes things entirely(eg porto=i carry, portas=you carry)
but overall i like latin
hope this helps if u thinking about learnig

Dare ga nihongo o hanasemasu ka.
or: "Who can speak Japanese?"

Very nice language, could come in quite handy for Eldar. Surprisingly easy to learn to. And it looks cool in writing.
