Main Characters

As quoted from the website:

Ben: A real language geek, claims to have invented Esperanto and Tok Pisin. He is incredibly easy to wind up (by Greg). Wears red shorts throughout winter.

Greg: Greg has an interest in linguistics, but from a different perspective. Has a different sense of humour to Ben and he fails to cotton on to the jokes that he makes, hence appearing dumb.

Harun: Harun is a friend of Greg's of Turkish Descent.So far he only appears in Webisode 5 where he interprets Ben's Turkish. This is just after Ben proclaims that "the creator" should make Ben fluent at Turkish.
