I've actually seen some before from a couple of different companies. Names escape me, though... but they were at the bookstore. I remember that because I was looking at how more obscure--yet "popular"--languages only had one or two materials available (if any) for study.

Holy moly! I just came across this dictionary (http://www.amazon.com/Concise-Hungarian ... 0198641699) and it's almost 1200 pages. 8O I think that should suffice. :lol:

But, you know, it's just so... available.

Too mainstream.

Why do people drag their feet when they walk... It serves no purpose.

I'll be going to the health food store to purchase some testosterone pills when my disability cheque is deposited in my bank next Wednesday. There's a specific brand that's safe.

Some of the best language books available can be bought from Amazon: Learning Irish by Mícheál Ó Siadhail,, Standard Basque - A Progressive Grammar by Rudolf P. G. van de Rijk, Icelandic by Stefán Einarsson, Lingua Latīna per sē illūstrāta by Hans Ørberg, just to name a few. ;) It's really cheap, and honestly a dictionary doesn't need to do much, so it should suffice.

Nah, I was making a reference to the fact that it's only available from "these sellers" and that there isn't even an available cover. :P
Amazon is great.

I don't get it. :lol:

Well I bought that dictionary. Even if I don't learn Hungarian, it's a useful book for me or someone else in the future. 8)

That being said, I speak very little. It is an analytical language similar to Sino-Tibetan languages. Most of the time, an entire sentence can be one word long. For instance, "I am from Florida" is "Vulaaridamiutaujunga". But the word order is weird for me. I haven't really figured it out all the way through. I do know, however, that -Junga means I and almost always goes at the end of a statement as do -Jut(you) or -Juq(it, he, she).
Site where I learn it: http://www.tusaalanga.ca/splash

I am more than 200% sure that Inuktitut is a polysynthetic language, which is the exact opposite of analytical. Did you even read my post on your thread? I explained everything. :P http://www.wrongplanet.net/postp3663041.html#3663041

I have a couple resources for Inuktitut, although I don't know what dialect they're in. I have an introductory course, introductory reference grammar, an intermediate course, and 25 80-page "trilingual" magazines in Inuktitut and English which seem to be mostly interviews and stories, so great reading material, with Inuktitut in both the Latin script and Canadian Syllabary. I could get you those if you want them. ;)

As for me, I'm seriously considering learning Hungarian; it's awesome. I have everything and more I need to learn and practice it, except a good dictionary, so I'd probably have to buy one, but there aren't many English - Hungarian dictionaries. :(


What happens when I skim and assume. God damn my 16 year old self. I haven't really been into the science of linguistics in some time. I used to be though.

Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus. Well, I feel like I'm from Mars.

Good morning, by the way. :)

If that scrawny little bastard would just let me play the drums the way that I taught myself to do so, I would be able to keep up with his music. That's it! I won't spend my time in the music room with him, anymore. He can choose from three other drummers who have a more modern style. I'll drum with the other guys, the way that I taught myself. I'll have to bring that to the attention of the staff person who's in charge of the jam session on Friday afternoons. I'm going to be saving at least two coffee or paint cans worth of change over the next 12 to 15 months. I'll use a big chunk of that money for drum lessons. I'll tell the instructor that Mick Avory is my favourite drummer and my plans to be in a Kinks tribute band one day in the near future. I'll need to have all that coin saved up soon. I could get that rehab enabling fund in the mean time. Oh, yeah. This is Got Anything Random to Say. Sorry if I'm not so random anymore.

Hello, WrongPlanet! I come to you now from my own airline on Imagination Isle, Ghost Airlines! The only airline in all creation that doesn't have overbearing security.

Its kind of hard for ghosts to hold bombs and arent ghosts already dead. That makes it unlikely that they could be killed again.
