My colleagues some times say I talk Aloada****e :yes:

 

My latin is quite good and I can get by in Germany when I visit my Sister.

 

My first wife was a Polyglot and spoke French, Spanish, Italian, German, Cantonese and Greek, fluently. She has made a fortune working for the British Diplomatic corps and currenly works in Bejing earning an absolute fortune....I hate her :yes:

I can speak a bit of Hewbrew and Yiddish but I'm not Jewish. I just worked in Israel for a time. I can also speak Geordie and that really is a foreign language. Doesn't exist now except in rural parts but in its purest form its still unintelligable to the English. The words may be english but the accent is Viking.
