  G’day Clive! Bine aţi venit la lista! Placere! Am învăţat Româneşte de sine. Adeverat, nu putesc vorbi româneşte foarte bine. Îmi place limba româna, dar putesc să vorbesc alte limbe latine mult mai bine. 
   
  I'm impressed with your Lakota ability!  How did you get interested in Amerindian languages, particularly Siouan?  Ąkįxtispeye taneksąya ade.  That is, I'm working on Biloxi, but the problem is there's no one left to speak it with!  The other Amerindian language I'm currently involved with is Rumsien Ohlone (Penutian), also unfortunately extinct, helping to transcribe John P. Harrington's voluminous piles of notes on the language.
   
  La revedere!
   
  Dave
