I've thought about creating my won language before. It's not exactly nuts, look at J.R Tolken and his Elvish languages for his books, or Klingon  :P

My father made an alphabet in school - out of egyptian hieroglyphs - ans knows how to write in it untill now :)

Personally, I love Tolkien's languages, and the amount of effort he put into it.

Um well when i was in school some of my friends created a secret language so only we can understand what we have written

So basically what we did was to replace one letter with another and use almost no spaces... for example  the letter a=h the letter c=g and the letter t=z
so cat will become ghz  ;D but after some time we got lazy decrypting the messages and forgot about it :D

Haha yes, there are, and many world's writing systems to learn also! My favourite - Burmese:

Or what about learning a bit of knot-language (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quipu)? Knot knot, not knot? Knot!

ყველა ადამიანი იბადება თავისუფალი და თანასწორი თავისი ღირსებითა და უფლებებით. მათ მინიჭებული აქვთ გონება და სინდისი და ერთმანეთის მიმართ უნდა იქცეოდნენ ძმობის სულისკვეთებით.

:o I did not make this up.

I always thought Hebrew looks amazing, but these are nice too.  A big fan of Thai script as well, sorry I forget the proper name.

Hebrew is cool as hell, but I'm in Israel right now and it's impossible to read lol.
