I think I stumbled across that conlang over a year ago-- I recall "forda" = 'car'. The design IS nice! From the introduction, it sounds as if he developed it pretty much all on his own-- i.e. no reference to Tolkien et al., who inspired so many of us. I tried the Georgian site, and get only ÁÖÍÝŸÉ etc. But the Delason site gave no problems. What is/are Dynamic Fonts and where do I find it/them?
