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

Don't be precise, and don't worry.</p>

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...
