	Chinese Language - MSN Encarta
		It is the official language of China and one of the official languages of Singapore.
		As the dominant language of East Asia, Chinese has greatly influenced the writing systems and vocabularies of neighboring languages not related to it by origin, such as the Japanese language, the Korean language, and the Vietnamese language.
		Highly inflected languages such as the Latin language and the Russian language make scores of additions to, or changes in, the sound of a word to indicate grammatical differences.

	ACM Ubiquity Review: A Pattern Language for Web Usability
		The notion of "patterns," and of a "pattern language," comes from the work of Christopher Alexander, a contemporary architect who proposed the use of collections of architectural patterns to address deficiencies in modern building design.
		The third section, which is the bulk of the book, contains the patterns that comprise the "wu" language (for "Web usability"), and specific process recommendations for using the language.
		For example, there is a sort of undercurrent of trans-lingual play with the "wu" acronym, and the eastern Chinese dialect, family name, and Chinese ideogram which all share the word "wu." Graham's writing voice and his British usages are pleasing to my American ears.
