There is this girl who sits by me at work...we were talking and such...I talked about jeanie and jacinta and they being in Oz...she asks me they speak English in Oz....I go no...they speak spanish...and she buys it. Well until I start laughing....but then I got to thinking about the odd language of Oz...in reality it is an equal mixture of grunts, english, and gibberish...in other wors not a real language at asll...and it never surprises me how well Jeanie and other Ozzies I know can communicate with the outside world so well. Do they teach bilingualness on a regular basis in the schools? Or do they just grunt and point and speak gibberenglish amongst each other and put ona front of intelligent conversation with outsiders? What do you all think? Or am I the only one amazed by this phenonemon and it doesn't really make a difference on life the universe and everything?
