Disclaimer:  I know nothing of Runequest beyond what an alert person who
used to play D&D might know.

It seems to me to be reasonable to be able to RECOGNIZE, say, written 
Darktounge [sic], even if you cannot read it.  I can recognize Hebrew,
and Sanskrit, though my abilities in those languages are "0%".
(Well, 0.1% speak Hebrew.  Shalom)
