Umm, Romanization is the process of rendering into Roman characters words in languages written in a non-Roman script.

Umm, Romanization is the process of rendering into Roman characters words in languages written in a non-Roman script. Since Gaelic is not (as far as I know, other than Ogham, which hasn't been used in over a millenia) written in non-Roman script, is this really an issue for Gaelic? I'm sure there are spelling/etc issues, but that's different. J. Noel Chiappa 19:44, 15 May 2008 (CDT)
