The Cyrillic alphabet was the only one I really ever learned that wasn't based on ABC, etc. I have buds from VN that learned Mandarin as it is spoken by the "iron triangle" peoples (actually all of SEA) more than any other language (as a commonality) as opposed to the bastardization by the french of the vietnamese language to make a tonal language boiled down to a 26 letter alphabet! If you speak Mandarin Chinese you will have a better chance of being able to communicate with someone in Laos, Cambodia, or even Burma than any other language. They can send me emails to this day with phonetic mandarin and I can speak them to VN peoples that I know and they know what they are saying! To me that is amazing! I knew enough vietnamese to interrogate someone - ladai, cam ong u lumh, lu dahn, didi mau, mot, hai, bom. lam, nam, sau, tam, tin. mui, caca dau, etc. But the real co. linguists could make those dudes really cough up. I suppose there's a lesson there too. go to...
