And here I was thinking that English had the useless rules... (well, not that they're useless exactly... but there's so many exceptions!) That was the appeal of Latin... undoubtedly there are loads of rules, but if you could ever get a handle of them all, the rest would come easily.... its all patterns. Also, it allows such subtle differences in expression, with so many words for each English one... (especially when it comes to killing and slaughtering and butchering and any other synonyms you can come up with...)
EDIT: And out of interest, is there anyone at the DN who speaks Elvish? (Tolkien)
