Surely the only languages that are not weird are those specifically designed to be widely spoken?

And no-one wants to speak those!

"Who goes there", John Campbell, 1938.

(And I seem to recall more movies that are rehashes of that novella.)

You know, that's a good idea anyway.

I wonder though what that would mean for the copyright?

So if you decide to wear traditional Roman dress, trousers shouldn't be included.

But it's still designed for men.
