Yes this is correct, John,
When languages will be teach as a tools to communicated to other?
as a open mind peace process...
When languages will be teach during a scientist, mathematical or
geographical lesson?...
It is important that much people as possible listen the possibilities to
communicated and develop the possibilities to wrote in other system
as well as Hebrew, Latin, Korean, Japonesse, Thay, Mongolian or other
This subject on this unicode list are important and very interesting
as We know why unicode must be well develop.
Have a very good new year evening and see you next millenium
