Actually, I did know that. Eyeless Myrddraal - 17/01/2003 04:55:56 AM

I can't think of hello immediately in all the languages I know when I'm as tired as I was last night. I've had a Teach Yourself Swahili book in my house for as long as I can remember, because my mum worked in Uganda when she was young.

I was just coming to add another African language that I'd remembered, actually. "Sawubona" = I see you in isiZulu. It must be where RJ got the Aiel greeting from - they are partly based on Zulus.

Yours, .
