The spelling problems with -ically tones have been fixed.

The tones terse and tactful have been removed, as it was pointed out that those tones really describe a message's content rather than its delivery. Instead of terse, it's recommended that players use abrupt or quick, or the new tones brusque or curt. Instead of tactful, the tones careful, gentle, kind, understanding, or warm are options.

In addition to the above mentioned brusque and curt, the new tones decisive, incredulous, and whimsical have been added.

SPEAK now shows what language you are currently speaking at the bottom.
