As to German, youngest is learning it now and says it makes less sense and is a bigger pain in the arse than English ever thought of being. Her favorite example of dumb language rules is that in German nouns have gender applied -- masculine, feminine and neuter (go figure) AND girl (madchen, can't do an umlaut on this computer) is neuter.

Don't you have a charactermap for the umlaut?

I took two years of German in college. It has totallymessed up my English as now I want to make everything a compoundword.
