I recently went to a Scots Gaelic site I'd got bookmarked but hadn't looked at for a while and got an automated message to say the site was down for maintenance. It was in six languages. Hmm, the six keltic tongues maybe? No. Some of those plus English and French? No. Languages of folks likely to be studying SG, i.e. major european languages like German, French, Dutch maybe? No. Main languages used in Scotland, e.g. English, Scots, Gaelic, Polish, Italian, Panjabi, Urdu ... ? No. Major world languages, which I suppose are English, Mandarin, Spanish, Arabic, Russian ... ? No.
Actually : English, Spanish, Thai (!!!), Portugese, Tagalog (!!), and Hindi (!)
I assume there's some sort of logic at work here, anyone have any idea?
