About me
I am, just like the vast majority on this site, a complete and utter language nerd. Languages and lingustics are a dying art. Many satisfy, especially in the UK and US, with their native English. In my country, Sweden, the case is similar, and we tend to settle with learning one foreign language - English.

My signature is simply a translation of Quod erat demonstrandum into Nāmaς - kyām dēkar

To remember

 * Personal demonstratives; compared to proximal-distal ones.
 * Simple active-stative distinction.
 * Gender-based conjugation.
 * Collective standard number.
 * Aspect-richness through periphrasis.
 * Some fun diathesises...

Languages
I have decided to implement the full Neumatic League of languages, all inspired by different language families, though with great similarities in between. They all have the same foundation, lexically, but differences in grammar and phonology. Sooner or later, all these languages will be reoresented on the site.

Neumatic League
Naṃkrthāvāka  - an Indo-European and Indo-Iranian influenced language.

† Nūi Nhā - a Polynesian inspired language. The language's features will be implemented into the Mbanda language.

Mbanda - a language with some Bantu influences.

Ddánna Náir - a Celtic inspired language.

Мıpсκя Иaɔьyκa (Mırskya Jazȷyka) - a language with Slavic influences.

Quotations
I also have horrible fascination of quotes, and there's a reason why they intrigue me, you know why?

The next best thing to being clever is being able to quote someone who is. - Mary Pettibone Poole

''I like quoting Einstein. Know why? Because nobody dares contradict you.'' - Studs Terkel

Tables
I'll store some tables here for copying.
