Yes, but limited to world languages Jun 24

If there are aliens out there, I want to be able to talk with them. Where do I sign up for languages out of this world?

We'd be buggered if there were such a thing as world languages.

.... a case to be made that where artificial languages have failed to produce the situation where any human can communicate with any other human, artificial intelligence is on the way to doing so?
