How do Mormons defend Reformed Egyptian as a legitimate language?
score:2
Accepted answer
I don't see that any defense is necessary. We're talking about a language used only among a few leaders of an extinct people, the only record of which we have is the Book of Mormon itself. No scholars have seen the language (other than the apocryphal Anthon Transcript). On what basis would they be able to claim it never existed, or confirm its existence? The Book of Mormon claims, "... none other people knoweth our language ...".
