If I could learn a.. erm.. not popular/not immediately useful to me... language... it'd be one of the Celtic languages.

Medieval German would probably have to come first for martial arts reasons, but yes, there are poems and chronicles in Welsh that I'd love to read in the original.

I'm afraid if it were me I'd learn Tolkinean elvish, but that's because I am very very sad.

Ah, but would you learn Sindarin (more useful for everyday conversation) or Quenya (the more beautiful an scholarly)? And even then there are dialect choices. :-)

... sad there isn't more Tolkinean elvish/there aren't more books to it?
