Benct's Rhodrese, for example, is a major inspiration to me.
Bu� Sair! It's heartening indeed to return from the dark woods to get such praise! I only wish I had time to work on Rhodrese, not to mention the Really Hopeless Project: an historical grammar of Rhodrese -- in Rhodrese, or Burgendish, the Germanic Sprachbund-language of Old Rhodrese. Although I sometimes feel that Rh. is too close to being just Proven�al with diphthongization (Prov. *has* been a major inspiration in the later real-time development of Rh.) it actually has taken on a life of its own and gone a long way from my first attempt at a pleasing (to me) synthesis/compromise between French and Italian nearly thirty years ago! BTW yourself was of major help in sorting out the great crux of how to spell the many platals of Rh., as I believe you will remember. So maote mercair both for the praise and the orthographic assistance! /Bend�tx
