@BigAir: you’ll have to check with the makers of Zlango themselves, and it will also depend on your area. :) thanks for dropping by!

Where’d my comment go! Ack. Looks like comments do get lost when you send them off looking for their intended destinations in the middle of the night (or early dawn).

At any rate, isn’t English difficult enough a language to learn and master (always evolving and never seems to make sense)?

Heck, even the simplest of emoticons might be easily misunderstood! What of a complex new symbol-based language?

ah, you’re both right i guess. but i admire their courage and coolness.

i mean, they’re not monsters out to eat you with their staggeringly squeaky-clean product, but that they’re friendly folk you’d want to approach and stalk (?) after that first visit.

do i make any sense? i hope so.

ZMS…

*giggle*

It’s going to be pretty difficult to communicate properly using that though, since you have to learn all the proper usages… Meh. I don’t think it’s a good idea to mess with an existing convention that already works well. You’re right; to all extents and purposes it’s like creating a whole new language, and really, who wants to go through that just to say something you can already say in English (or whichever letter-based language you prefer)?
