On a related note: learning another writing system can also be enlightening. Last year I learned how to read Cyrillic and it was a valuable experience. Now I'll see tidbits on Russian-language forums that I can kinda make sense of, or jokes about people using faux Cyrillic[0] in band names, t-shirts, etc. :P More practically, it makes you think about coverage of non-Latin characters in fonts! What does a Cyrillic "ya" (я) look like in your font of choice, for example? Also, I'm curious how most peoples' browsers display it here on HN! BTW, Fira Sans[1] and Noto Sans[2] are two open-source fonts with Cyrillic coverage.
