Rick,

Do you also have friends in the neighborhood who are collecting or playing? Or do you know people who did in the past?

Heije,

Maybe time for another Dutch tournament?

[Gil-Estel]

Not before summer for sure ;-) But later on maybe.... Hey and Witchking...the day you speak Dutch as well as I speak German ......

[Witchkingx5]

He, immerhin spreche ich schon Englisch, Französisch, Tschechisch und Deutsch! Wär aber trotzdem mal interessant, ein wenig Niederländisch zu lernen

[ket_the_jet]

So much for the legendary courtesy of the Elves. Speak words we can all understand!

actually in basic English, German, Dutch, french and even Russian have the same source; They are all indo-germanic languages, so you should understand bits of them.

... and cus' i also understand latin, even reading Italian texts doesn't cuase much problems for me. Same for Slovakian (from Czechish) and Dutch (from German).

Very easy indeed!

No, all the people I know are miniature-minded (not to be confused with small minded, though) They respect my hobby/obsession, but they wouldn't and will never ever get themselves into he cardboard side of LOTR. Shame, really.

BTW: I'm not an Elf. More of the Dwarfish persuasion, actually, though I do speak English, French, a bit of Russian, some German, Indonesian (heritage, don't ask) and Italian. Let's just say I come fro a line of people who liked to travel and 'move it', so to speak....

Well, we do that now and then, showing off with all our foreign tongues ....here goes all or nothing. Samaidibai Kap! Kop Koon Kap, Sawadee Kap....Three (3!) whole Thai words/sentenses and not the slightest idea whether they are spelled right, hahaha
