 Noric - FrathWiki
Noric is a language family spoken in the Austrian Alps (with some outliers in other areas in central Europe) in the League of Lost Languages.
The Noric languages descend from Proto-Noric, which is assumed to have been spoken somewhere between Vienna and Salzburg about 3000 years ago.
Noric is a group effort; we are currently working out Proto-Noric, the common ancestor of the individual Noric languages.

 LINGUIST Codes for Ancient and Constructed Languages
The workgroup's aim is to produce a supplementary set of language codes that will, in conjunction with the Ethnologue's set, constitute a complete set of codes for all languages of which there is any historical or current record.
That is, all apparently mutually intelligible ancient languages spoken at approximately the same period should be assigned one code, unless it conflicts with scholarly usage.
Constructed languages cannot be treated by the criterion of mutual intelligibility, since they are almost never actually spoken, and are as much cultural objects as linguistic.

Other closely related languages, and descended from Old Irish, are Scottish Gaelic (Gàidhlig), and Manx Gaelic (Gaelg), languages spoken in Scotland and the Isle of Man, though the term Irish Gaelic instead of Irish is often used when the three languages and their relationship to one another are being discussed.
Irish is given recognition by the Constitution of Ireland as the first official language of the Republic of Ireland (with English being a second official language), despite the limited distribution of fluency among the population of that country.
Although the language was taught in Catholic secondary schools (especially by the Christian Brothers), it was not taught at all in state (Protestant) schools and public signs in Irish were effectively banned under laws by the Parliament of Northern Ireland, which stated that only English could be used.

 Celtiberian language - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Celtiberian (also Hispano-Celtic) is an extinct Celtic language spoken by the Celtiberians in central Spain before and during the Roman Empire.
Celtiberian and Gaulish are usually grouped together as the Continental Celtic languages, but this grouping too is paraphyletic: no evidence suggests the two shared any common innovation separately from Insular Celtic.
The longest extant Celtiberian inscriptions are those on three Botorrita plaques, bronze plaques from Botorrita near Saragossa, dating to the early 1st century BC, labelled Botorrita I, III and IV (Botorrita II is in the Latin language).

Breton is not a descendant of any of the Continental Celtic languages such as Gaulish (though it may have borrowed some features from it); rather, it is descended from the Brythonic branch of Insular Celtic languages brought by Romano-British settlers to Brittany, perhaps from the end of the 3rd century onwards.
It was assumed that reactionary and monarchist forces preferred regional languages in an attempt to keep the peasant masses under-informed.
Breton is not an official language of France, despite pleas from autonomists and others for official recognition and for the language to be guaranteed a place in schools, the media, and other aspects of public life.

The language is called Classical Armenian, or Grabar, and was written until the previous century - though the spoken language suffered many significant changed caused by alien influence from Turkey and Persia.
As for the language, the Frankish speech was a variant of the Old High German language, with some special peculiarities arising from contacts with Romance population (for example, consonants seem to hasve been more voiced than in Bavarian or Allemanian).

 Celtic languages - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Celtic languages are the languages descended from Proto-Celtic, or "Common Celtic", a branch of the greater Indo-European language family.
Today, Celtic languages are now limited to a few areas in the British Isles, eastern Canada, Patagonia, scattered groups in the United States and Australia, and on the peninsula of Brittany in France.
Within the Indo-European family, the Celtic languages have sometimes been placed with the Italic languages in a common Italo-Celtic subfamily, a hypothesis that is now largely discarded, in favour of the assumption of language contact between pre-Celtic and pre-Italic communities.

The Slovenian language is a continuation of the language of Veneti that is not only proven through irrefutable etymological similarity but also with the distinctive grammatical similarity that is evident on the attestation tables.
Since the Slovenian language has never been in contact with the Basque, we must conclude that the similarities originate in the distant pre-Indo-European past when there was a common language from the Pyrenees to the Alps and beyond.

Mallory suggests paleolinguistics supports the idea that the languages of Europe and Asia which resemble each other did not spring up independently of one another and it is not likely that the civilizations that sustained them did either.
The characteristics Indo-European languages share with respect to vocabulary and grammar have led many scholars to postulate that they are all descended from an original parent language, called Proto-Indo-European, which is believed to have been spoken some time before 4000 B.C., perhaps before 8000 B.C. or earlier.

The League of Lost Languages (LLL) is a collaborative project about the survival of languages that existed or could have existed in the world we live in, but disappeared without leaving any living descendants.
The idea is that in the LLL world, some languages survived that died out here, without changing the world more than necessary to accomodate the languages in question.
An LLL language could be yet another of the many diverse languages of the North American Pacific coast, a modern-day descendant of Sumerian or a pre-Bantu language in the Congo basin.

Step into Sky is a collection of English language haiku which offers both a sense of repatriation: foreign haikus being replaced next to a Japanese language version; and a very clear sense too of the specific setting, in this case the Ozark mountains, quartz-crystal caves, and the Kansas prairies, in Missouri, USA.
The code may take the form of the poem; the cypher, the reader, is wrangled by the confluence of form, memory, desire, loss, and language.

 Invention versus Innovation | Thoughtlets
In the midst of their recent article on “Innovation as Language Action” in CACM, Peter Denning and Robert Dunham propose an answer that I find both simple and compelling: innovation occurs where we observe that a group or community has adopted a new practice.
Invention is something different - it means to create something new, but it does not require that anyone accept or adopt it.
It’s interesting to read your company’s blog and see that our ideas do align on innovation being about instigating change rather than simply the act of creating novel ideas.
