Na'vi Name: Reytx
It would be cool if my name was different in Na'vi, however Reytx is the closest I can get to my last name.
About Me
I'm totally new to the language, and have only limited experience in other languages. It's been hard for me to understand concepts such as dative, and aspects (I'm definitely not a language major). I'm pressing on however, and we'll see what happens. I have my fingers crossed that Frommer will be able to release a more complete compendium in the future. Until then I am using the Pocket Guide and the excellent dictionaries compiled by Taronyu.
