Actually the first sentence a lil bit complex I managed to say in lao was something like:

ten sao, ten nung dawo tcha si beung seu venus, le venus men mak

(havent talk lao for about 2 years now, should be a lil bit rusted, and I have written it phoneticaly)

who knows what it means?

You probably haven't installed a Japanese font. It shows fine here.

Where in Japan? What are you going to do there? My brother lives in Tokyo (he is a professor at the University of Tokyo).

"I" would be dialect, so you should continue in dialect, too: "I hab' ka Idee." 😉

Dunno yet, I never make any plan, just let things happen. I tried that once in my life when going to India: I decide to make a plan and to start in Mumbai, but at the travel agency they only had a ticket left for Calcuta, so I started there and at the end never reached Mumbai. But for the best because I felt in love with Calcuta big time!

I am tempted by Kyoto actually, but Japan doesnt seem very big (size of england) so it should be easy enough to move from one city to the other.

And to do what, I dunno, and I dont really mind, I have done tons of different things in my life, like in Lao I was some kind of gardener, eh eh.

Off course I guess it's gonna be possible to do some conversation class over there that I heard are in big demand specially more with french or spanish then english.

So wait and see

And for the Lao sentence here's a clue: venus means venus 😛

The EU is adopting Latin as it's official language.

No, but I am a bit misinformed. Finland and the Vatican are pushing for it, but that's as far as it goes from what I now understand.

In my free time, I also study Greek and Italian....

So.....are there any others who enjoy languages as much as I do?
