From YKTTW Working Title: Fake Alphabet Language

Anke: I removed this

• Golems in Discworld speak in Wingdinglish.

Their "speech" (actually writing) is represented with an alphabet that tries to evoke Hebrew script look, but it is still a Latin alphabet that can be read without any problems if you can read English. Just a fancy font.

Daibhid C: In Feet Of Clay, yes. In the Moist novels there's the ancient language of the golems, supposedly created by angels, which is a Wingdinglish version of John Dee's angelic language.

Anke: Oh, sorry. I guess they didn't leave that much of an impression for me. Thanks for clarifying the entry.
