Halo, my name is Matt, I am 15 also, and I have been working on Conlangs for about 1 year, and with other langs ( Latin and Japanese in particular ) for about 3 or 4. Welcome to CONLANG! ^_^ I am very certaint that you will enjoy it very much so!

Sorry, I am at a blank. Another writing system ( which includes its own punctuation ) is Tengwar writing system for Quenya/Sindarin and such...

Again, I am at a loss. Forgive me ^_^ Namaarie, Eruanno *I lanta i namba* _________________________________________________________________ Get your FREE download of MSN Explorer at http://explorer.msn.com
