<DIV>Indeed, a FAQ is per se a good idea, but is there really a single template (especially if we consider the various conlangs in competition here) ? </DIV>
<DIV>When I taught sambahsa to someone else, I used a Google group as a platform for exercises and explanations: </DIV>
<DIV><A href="http://groups.google.com/group/sambahsa-mundialect">http://groups.google.com/group/sambahsa-mundialect</A></DIV>
<DIV>If this experience could be repeated and if people would ask frequently the same questions, then there is matter for such a FAQ. Unfortunately, it's hard to predict which questions will be posed in advance (or it's no more a FAQ but a grammar...). </DIV>
<DIV>I have a FAQ on the sambahsa wiki, but it's purpose is only to provide an overall presentation of the language, not in-depth grammatical explanations: </DIV>
