At the beginning of this thread I was looking at different languages, and one of those was Greek. It caught my fancy, because it - among relatively few other languages, like Welsh, and English, of course - uses the sound θ, and is also everywhere (and I'd very much appreciate not to have to consult a dictionary if I want to use the plural of some scientific term or whatever). The problem is that it doesn't use the Latin alphabet, which would make looking words up on the internet a pain. I mean, I'd have to learn another keyboard layout, I guess. With German you get away with omitting diacritics and expecting Google to fill them in... But really, with these complicated, unusual languages I more and more long for a person I could just ask... I suppose that's not the most outlandish idea. It's just unusual for me. As such, I also don't know if there's many people willing to become another's walking talking dictionary...
