You definitely are a language nerd if you answer a question here that remotely has something to do with Basque, you become curious as to whether there are a lot of dictionaries and grammars for this language, you check it on the German version of Amazon and ... well, now I have one of each |

You know you are (or at least want to be) a language nerd when Iversen is your hero.

When you have to make a good first impression on your brother's new girlfriend, after he broke up with his hungarian ex, but can't help eyeing that "Magyar" book standing on his shelf, even though magyar is nowhere in your list of languages to learn.

When you find links like these in your bookmarks: Language in the Twelve Colonies regarding the Battlestar Galactica series, Transliterate Hebrew text for someone who has no plans in the near future to study Hebrew at all, and finally this one in Georgian - no idea what it says, it just looks pretty :) Now I really need help.
