Hello, William. I wanted to ask you first, but I'd like to change "'Ìnglìsì" to "'ìnglìsì". I know, that it is written capitalized in the ASG, but I have problems to see a language as a proper noun. What do you think? [[User:Na'rìghawnu|Na'rìghawnu]] 10:27, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Hey William,

Any way the songs can be posted, or maybe emailed? Looks like there's some good stuff in there. kwami 21:34, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

I think posting them might fall under reasonable fair-use, but I am currently hesitant to test that theory. I don't even know who owns Na'vi at this point — Cameron? Fox? Paramount has been twitchy about Klingon, so I'm perhaps over-cautious. Wm.annis 21:42, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
Could you email them to me, then? Certainly phrases can be used.
(BTW, AFAIK you can't copyright a language, or a script, so no-one can own the language and the vocab is fair game, though you can of course copyright the poems themselves.) kwami 22:29, 27 December 2009 (UTC)
I have tried — and failed — to find your email address. Where should I be looking? Wm.annis 01:01, 28 December 2009 (UTC)
If you go to my user or talk page, in the toolbox on the left, under the search box, 2nd from the btm is a link 'e-mail this user'. My email is enabled, so it should work.
Thanks! kwami 07:33, 28 December 2009 (UTC)

Hello¡ You know a language is a living thing and it needs the word love. Don´t bane me. Change it if you like, but keep a word for love. Thank you.

Hello, William. I wanted to ask you first, but I'd like to change "'Ìnglìsì" to "'ìnglìsì". I know, that it is written capitalized in the ASG, but I have problems to see a language as a proper noun. What do you think? Na'rìghawnu 10:27, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

Well, Frommer seems to have no such problem. He uses the upper-case form in his email, too. —Wm.annis 14:29, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
Hm, so ok, let's keep it so. But I'm still not convinced that languages belong to the group of proper nouns. Na'rìghawnu 16:10, 1 February 2010 (UTC)
