hilarious but a little true! It is very hard to speak but they knew what I was saying when I spoke.
@Yogi1 people like to get me to talk and say specific words. Of course I don’t notice it but get called out all the time for it.
are you a proper Southern belle, like “y’all come back now, y’hear?”

@Yogi1 Hell no I say “y’all stay the f*** off my property or I’ll get the gun and have my dog bubba come run you off”
…joking, yes I’m proper or try to be! I talk similar to Reese Witherspoon in the movie Sweet Home Alabama. I have manners but sometimes my words are not so lady like.

Awesome. Do you have a double-barrelled name like Mary-Lou or Sara-Beth? Something like that?
I know how to say sweet things to girls in about a dozen languages. It was quite handy in college, particularly with the Norwegian and Swedish.

My (other) future wife
Her hair looks slightly unkempt like I’ve just ruffled it playfully and she is looking at me with a slightly amused eyeroll stating “this is 3rd time this morning that you have done that, now stop playing, I need to get to work. Can you help me out of this ridiculously sexually enticing top so I can put something more suitable on?”
…
…
And we lived happily ever after!
Oh by the way, she never got that more suitable top back on, in fact she never left for work either

What is Yiddish? Is it old school Hebrew or something else?
It’s basically a blend of Hebrew and old German. You know plenty, as many of the insults have worked their way into the American English Lexicon
zaftig
tush
putz
mensch
shlemil (Gilligan)
schlimazel (everyone else on the island)
boychick
bupkis
schlep
Etc.

I’m a bit of a polyglot - I moved a lot as a kid so I picked up quite a few languages and I have to say it’s a favorite hobby of mine - I’m fascinated by the etymological differences between language groups.
Four South Slavic languages
Russian
German
English
French
Italian
Spanish
a smattering of Arabic, Farsi and Hebrew
