The answer is a language that begins with &quot;G&quot;, but is not Gaelic, German or Greek? What is it, Gujarati?

Gothic? The goths were a people so I bet they had a language, what?

"Good Morning!" said the dragon. "You seem surprised."

It could be Gaeilge or Greek.

I really do think that another question should be asked here... by either Sharku or someone else as this one has been around for ever and no-one has got it...
