Oh, noo, noo, noo, Mike! There's no striking off lists here, because there's no
duplication, and there's no end to my greed. For each language, even for each
dialects, there's the motto "The more the merrier." So don't you dare cross out
anything, Mister!<br>
<br>
In addition to what you listed, I'd like to see at a minimum the following:<br>
<br>
Assamese, Awadhi, Balochi, Bengali, Bhojpuri, Brahui, Deccan, Divehi, Dzonkha, Garhwali,
Gondi, Haryanvi, Kanauji, Kashmiri, Kharia, Konkani, Kurukh, Lepcha, Magahi,
Malayalam, Manipuri, Marwari, Naga (any), Pali, Parsi, Sanskrit (oh, pretty
please!), Santali, Sindhi, Sylheti, Tamil, Telugu, and Tibetan. <br>
<br>
So there!<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Reinhard/Ron</span></p>
