Indeed, I remember your name from somewhere.

Ukrainian? It seems that - with the recent influx of Ukrainians - we can
introduce Ukrainian as the list's third official language (apart from Dutch and
Swedish). I'm not Ukrainian, but I can at least understand it.

> Languages I think are cool: Georgian, Latvian, Finnish, Turkish.
Agreed, agreed, agreed, agreed.

What a nice page! As soon as I'll have more time, I'll look at it more closely.
Actually, I also have some old sketchy stuff that I might put online as well,
even though most of it is of an embarrassing quality. Right now, my main
project is Wenedyk <http://www.geocities.com/wenedyk/language>, essentially
what Polish would have looked like had it been a Romance language. Other
projects of mine are Hattic and Askaic (Indo-European), and Vozgian (North
Slavic).

Well, at least it pleases the eye!
