I've got another match of 'Fries'. Any idea what that's the language of? (Apart from McDonalds) I'm pretty sure its a Northan Eurpean Language. I'll keep looking.

I think itmight be a form of Icelandic which has similariies to the Danish language. I'm not 100% sure, but I think its talking baout travelling and meeting someone in a place. Asked Jeeves, and came up with a few similarites to the Icelandic thingy. I'll keep looking. I like this game! Gimme some more! Look under Faroese. Sounds a bit like that. Can't find the link to it now, but will try and find it.

If its not double Dutch, I think it looks Scandinavian - possibly Swedish or Danish. Have you tried google translation? nell
