I'm on the verge of possibly writing a story that features fantasy characters like witches, elves, wizards, and so on. I was inspired by a lot of fantasy books like Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings and one thing I was curious about was the authors' inspiration of coming up with spells and languages. I suppose some looked at old languages or latin and drew from them. Is that their explaination for it? I didn't exactly look at the history of how they did it.
The way it's written, it makes it seem like it's a language used all around. For instance, elf language. I read a few stories here and there with elven language and names, and I've never really looked at the difference in their creation, but I assume they are unique for the tale. Anyways, what are some of your opinions/suggestions on creating spells and languages. I'm especially curious when it comes to the evlen language. I've been to the site where you can create elven names from a generator, but I'm trying to avoid that.

Mental stimulation has become far more important to women than sex. Maintaining a relationship incarcerated takes communication something men do not have the time in society to consider. Many more women are committing to felons. I do is the new thing getting the ring begind the bars.

Alright, simply put, I would very much like to learn Japanese, Kanji, Katakana, and Hiragana. I had already heard of Rosetta Stone before and thought I would check it out. Apparently it says you can learn the spoken language, and all three written languages. However, I've been browsing around here in Yahoo Answers for other people who have asked the same question and have read mixed responses. Basically, I'm a very visual person, I've got a freaking photographic memory, and I grasp language well. So, would I be able to learn, and at least become fluent at an intermediate level, with Rosetta Stone?

I'm currently learning Spanish. I was reading something, and the word "calabaza en tacha" came up. I know that "calabaza en" means "pumpkin in", but what is tacha? I looked it up (as well as some similar words) in a dictionary and it can mean all sorts of things...eraser, tin, a challenge, a mistake,a condemnation....etc.

If you want the full context, here is a link to the reading I found the word in:

http://www.colby.edu/~bknelson/SLC/ofrendas/oaxaca_new.php

It's the fourth sentence from the bottom.

Thank you!

If I pushed someone over in the street, should i be punished for the fact that i pushed them over, what about if I intended to push them over because a sharp flying object was heading their way?

What about if I a christian told me about Jesus and I happened not to believe in it, in my world, I intended to reject a made-up story... does god understand the concious decision i made? I wasn't aware to the fact that Jesus exists (if he does). Should i be punished for happeing to be mistaken, or should i not be because I intended to reject a story which i was sure was made-up and fiction? I know no christians will get me.
