Altavista Translation Services The best in online translation... Of course, it does make some funny mistakes every once and a while. About two years ago, I translated "I turned on the lights" into German, from German into Spanish, and then from Spanish into French and then back into English, and the result was "I was enflaming the lightbulbs." Okay. It's gotten a lot better since then.

An Online Russian Grammar This page is geared toward linguists who are learning Russian; it's really not for the layman trying to pick up a second language.

Brendan's Language Page This page is surprisingly helpful. Brendan gives a phonetic guide to some 50 languages, and a basic vocabulary in each of the languages he describes.

Germanic Languages A helpful guide to Germanic languages.

The Indo-European Database (пo-русский) Cyrill Babaev's IE database. Incredibly extensive. This was the first PIE webpage I ever ran across, and it's funny - now I seem to find them wherever I go.

The International Phonetic Association Homepage The IPA alphabet is a fantastic idea. It's a phonetic alphabet based mostly on the Roman alphabet and designed to graphically represent every language known to man.

Jennifer's Page of Links: Language Links Jeez, this is a good page. Very complete.

MacBain's Dictionary A Gaelic etymological dictionary. I bought the hardcopy only to realize there was a hypertext version out *growls*

Modern English to Old English Vocabulary A very straightforward and readable wordlist.

OLD NORSE LANGUAGE By far the best webpage on the subject (I seem to remember there being a Swedish version, too, but the link is currently eluding me).

Omniglot An online guide to writing systems *drools* I still maintain that no matter how many interesting writing systems may be dangled in front of my nose, my favorite will always be Tamil.
     Glagolitic
     Tamil

Pater Noster The Lord's Prayer (and some other prayers) in hundreds of languages.

Prussian Dictionary A reconstructive project. The dictionary itself is not exactly user-friendly, but when you're working with Prussian online, you kind of have to take what you can get.

The Latvian Language If you're looking for information on Latvian, you'd better look here because you really won't find much elsewhere. I added this page almost out of necessity. You see, I've been tracking down information on Baltic languages for a long time and it seems like every page on the subject was put out by Cyrill Babaev. He's a fantastic linguist, but his pages have a nasty habit of pulling up 404 errors, so I try to avoid them. This is the only page on any Baltic language I've been able to find. Also, if you do manage to find something else, please feel free to email me.

The Unicode Homepage Okay, okay, I like Unicode! It's very helpful.

Verbix Extensive verb conjugation software, and minimal translation services. Fun stuff :)

Welsh Dictionary An archaic page, but this is the best you'll find.

Yahyá M's Home Page This page is mostly poetry and Islamic philosophy, and it was actually by searching for the latter that I found it, but it has two very interesting articles on early language families.

yourDictionary.com Don't the let the name confuse you - this page is actually interesting! :) This page has links to dictionaries, wordlists, grammars, thesauri, and other linguistically-themed pages in dozens upon dozens of languages -- even dead ones, and a few conlangs too. I came across this page my freshman year in high school and most of the Russian I now know was learned from one of the links I followed from this page.
