Summary: [RSRD] Certain languages missing "Read.Written" types

Initial Comment:
>From SkillsII.rtf, under the Speak Language skill description:
"A literate character (anyone but a barbarian who has not spent skill points to become literate) can read and write any language she speaks. Each language has an alphabet, though sometimes several spoken languages share a single alphabet."

This implies that the languages listed are also Written and Read.  Shouldn't these types be listed?

Message:
You are technically correct. The reason it's never been an issue is that
TYPE:Spoken is the only type that does anything. It's used in the Speak
Language Skill to select a language with: CHOOSE:LANGUAGE|Spoken

Go ahead and add them as they could be useful to homebrews like the
Alphabet types are.
