Want to learn Gothic?
Now, you can’t start with the basics of conversation, since no one really speaks this language any more. None of the “Hi. My name is ___. How are you?”
To find the Gothic that Alaric and his family would have spoken, check outhttp://www.utexas.edu/cola/centers/lrc/eieol/gotol-0-X.html. It’s a bit academic, but you can impress your friends with this language, which none of them have ever heard!
