Strange Languages

Speaking of strange languages, C++ in this case, have you ever seen the Welsh language, also known as Gaelic, here is an example;

swp wystrys bro gwyr.


Which manages to say "gower oyster soup" using only one vowel.


In fact there are eight different Welsh words for 'cat', a fact I found out from the Welsh spelling checker. For example you can call a cat a 'cathod' or 'nghath', etc.;
