Curses!
As if picking up one language is not difficult enough, I have to learn at least two! And if I want to get along well with folks from other races, I am told that it helps to know a third! Sigh!
But the languages people speak here are very interesting. Apparently the first few things that people learn are the curse words! Ooh, when do the lessons begin?
I was hoping to pick up a few while mama drives around. Unfortunately, mama doesn’t curse very much and I cannot lip-read what people are saying in their cars.
However, papa taught me a baby-level curse if some other driver offends us. I have learned to say, “Boogers to him!” At the same time, I put a choice finger in my nose and pretend to flick a choice projectile at said driver.
Apparently it looks quite rude and amusing at the same time. Don’t let my cuteness fool you though. If you cross me, it’s boogers to you!
