Hi,
If BB-61 who is already working on SOC texts is OK, It will be done!
Generally speaking, sorry man but I am not fluent in english but in french, and I am proud of it, because I speak the elite language.
Cheers

Hi Jager....you know I really like your mods, but everyone knows french is a dying language.
Gigs, what is a dying language?
-First, Elite is eternal.
-Second, FRench is the language of Elite, look at the history
- In 2000 years, who will visit a Mac Donald like people visit today Acropolis?
Most important, I prefer to stay with the people who are dying with dignity.
And please understand that with your message, you have insulted a lot of people.
Mais ce n'est pas grave.
Restons amis, Môssieur de l'Ontario, qui ne parle qu'une langue de DESESPOIR, qui ne se parle qu'avec le nez, comme une espèce de râle animal.
guys... English and French are both Latin/Greek hybrids with sparcles of local barbarian (in the original meaning) languages...
for even the most distict languages on the planet it is still: Greco-Roman termini from "problem" to "psychology" and from "star" to "galaxy", and from "campus" to "testimony"
the list is endless, in the end except for some buzz words and verbs no language is a language without Latin or Greek, so why argue...
logic allows the conclusion, no language can die until Latin and Greek is around so dont worry.
p.s. Pzjäger i think u really overlooked this one... Livefree said sth against French, not Digs. I splitted quotes to make it clear
p.s.2. maybe some etymology:
Problem (greek) = pro = in front of / blem = gaze => imminent thing to solve
psychology (greek) = psyche = soul / logy = art/science of => Art/Science of the soul
star (greek) = astron = shiny
galaxy (greek) = milkyway.... I describes the milk of Hera feeding Titans
campus (latin) = field, university ground
testimony (latin) = testicles... in court in antiquity, one had to swear an oath on his balls
list is endless, ergo no language is dead as long it possesses Greek/Latin words in it, because as language of the gods they are eternal.
quod erat demonstrandum
To brave men few words are as good as many

no offense friend, but...
i'd say: Diplomats are the Elite, Diplomats have to speak French.
Since international diplomacy is a post-Westphalian development, it is true that French became the operative language for diplomats and elite aristocracy after 1648, but almost certainly after Napolean francophonized Europe in early 1800's.
regarding Europe and by that most of world's history it would be the following order.
500 BC - 147 BC = Greek
147 BC - 500 AD = Latin
500 AD - 1400 AD= Greco-Latin
1400-1588 = Spanish/English/German/French
1588- 1789 = English
1789 - 1917 = French
1917 - 2008 = English
2050 - ? = Hispano-Chinese
