    Language creation

    Just ran across this thread. Have you heard of a book called The Art of Language Invention by David J. Peterson? I'm reading it right now and it's very informative and helpful.

    British Slang

    These guys are in their late 20's, from London and quite wealthy and well educated. Just before this they get into a quote battle between Shakespeare and Marlowe.
