    That looks like an entry of a dictionary… the script on the right side seems to be Burmese according to this image http://www.worldpeace.org/PeacePrayerIn83Languages.jpg I taught myself cyrillics so in the context of your question that would be “Belorussian” I think? :)

    My guess was Georgian, but it seems like others have concluded that it is Burmese.

    Burmese or Shan? All of the letters don’t seem to appear, but they look to be the closest.

    Wow. Whatever it is, it looks like one that would be way too hard for me to learn. XD
