What a great story! I knew a girl who could speak it; we always pestered her into saying supercalifragilisticexpialidocious in Gibberish. Afrikaans has some made-up gibberish of its own. My favourite was always Abefi, which I suppose would be equivalent. I'm not talented in this area though, unlike you. That was truly excellent!

teoh: Thanks -- I used to get pestered into saying that too! I just said it, in fact.

olive: Grazie -- see you tomorrow?

clash: Dude, what the hell is that?

HopSkipJump said...

Um... right. Is this where I just smile and nod, and pretend I know what the hell is going on?

Nice seeing that face of yours though... I need to get on the whole video diary thing.

So, what does Farber speak after a few brewskies? Is it kind of the same deal Sleek?

That story is too funny ... I don't know gibberish but I think that would be a great language to learn! Out of curiousity did you say "F--- you, b----" to that girl? Because that's how I understood it.

SleekPelt said...

matthes: You're more likely to be able to understand me and my gibberish.

rd: Ha! You never could do it right! No wonder it bugged you so much!

airam: Welcome! I've seen you around before. You understood it perfectly.

A fine gibberish story.My first language is pig Latin then redneck then the middle finger sign. I suppose I am not what one would call evolved. Which would probably explain the paucity of gibberish in my conversation, posts and comments. But as a wise person once said , "what you gonna do"?

Erin O'Brien said...

Believe nothing the man with one arm says.

Thirteen ceramic balls, authoritative in the palm, roll down a hill of grass. The stuff of dreams, Prussian blue and pearl and ruby. The little girl will never catch them.

Her lips split in laughter, a funnel of sound. The curtain falls The men turn to one another, exchange dry hands and peace.

And also with you.

josh: I had no idea you were trilingual. That's oodga uffsta.

erin: Josh doesn't have one arm, does he?

josh williams said...

Yes Trilingual. Erin has been spreading rumors about my arm for many years. (blogger years,a quantity yet to be defined) Why Erin continues this I do not know. Peace JW
