Welcome to the new Omniglot blog

This blog will contain my musings on language and languages, interesting words and phrases, details of my adventures in foreign parts, and various other bit and bobs. The main language will be English, but I’ll slip into other languages on occasion, just to see if you’re paying attention.

This is a nice idea, as we’ll get to read more of your thoughts on languages that don’t necessarily deal with orthography. You’re obviously very knowledgeable, so this could become a great resource.

Hello Simon,

This is a great idea and, by the way, thanks for having such a great site as omniglot. It’s the most informative site on languages and writing systems I’ve come across ever!

Mahalo nui loa!

Firstly, I love Omniglot. I’d say for me it’s probably the most visited site on the web.
Second, I love (and totally agree with) the little tagline you’ve given the blog.

Danke schön,
– Mike

I love this site. I frequently check for new additions / changes. I’m glad to see your site expanding. The articles on language are interesting. I look forward to more of them.
And, yes, one language definitely isn’t enough.
