Really, you dislike double vowels in English? For me, that is a small part of the mystique of a lang - whether or it can double or even triple (I can only think of Finnish which might triple, although they consider a and a/omlaut as separate letters but it still can look like 3 a's!). Hmm, I personally love doubles and triples as one might have guessed having seen a sample from my conlang, Vya:a:h! By the way, anyone know of a natlang which has triple vowels, and commonly makes us of them? Matt33 __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
