Thanks guys.
You can organize what you want, but without visitors and visiting forum members no Meeting.
So also a THANK YOU to all who came.

Easy.
Swop all the "Z"s for S´s.
Any letters that are double..make them single.
Any words that have an E after a D, replace the D with TH.
If you think you recognise the word (even if the spelling is a bit different) it´s probably the word you think it is.
W is just an extra letter to fool non-speakers so it can go.
The same with Y
Numerals are very similar to the common european ones, so they are easy.
For any words that don´t translate using these simple rules, just write each letter of the word on a piece of paper, throw them in the air and 99% of the time, the order they come down in is the excact translation. :-)
