A few days ago I saw a “language” in the list I had never even heard of: Lolspeak [afbeelding] [afbeelding] Obviously, Lolspeak is not a language that “builds bridges”, since it’s just English with a lot a spelling errors.

There’s Klingon so I’m not surprised that there’s one more strange language on Viki…
