I would have picked gaeilge too, since it's the only other language I know (kinda, I'm terrible at it). Ogham sucks though.

Yeah Ogham would be fucking awful for modern communication but I thought it'd be really funny. In a more serious sense I actually think it'd be super interesting to see how humans adapted to it and adapted it to their needs.

Anyway I also picked Gaeilge because it makes for great lyricism
