... is never enough.
I know a few words of Cherokee, rather more Lakota, and a smattering of, well, every other language I've ever so much as brushed against. But I make a point of using my favorites, even if I only know a handful of words. They are touchstones in my mind, access points for cultures. They make me happy. I like to encourage languages however I can.

I'm told that English contains words from almost every language it's ever come in contact with.
