WOW What a huge amount of work! It is great to see you putting in such a constant effort.
ReplyDeleteWhat you might find interesting is that some of the languages you research actually have an English Romanization - which means things like Japanese hiragana and katakana are written using the English alphabet. Another example might be Vietnamese, which is written with English and French alphabet, so what might be read in English sounds very different to what it really is.
I'm looking forward to the next blog posting!
