J. B. Rye wrote a "Ranto", or a rant against the promotion of Esperanto.
One appendix to the Ranto discusses the case marking systems in various
languages, and he mentions what he calls "the monster raving loony candidate
(some Iranian sightings)", but he does not identify the specific language.
It's not Farsi, is it?
