I'm sure at least one of you must speak Klingon too

We have a new game folks. Guess the language Pros is learning. Gaelic, Welsh, Swedish, Wiltshire, Geordie??? PS Gaelic got auto corrected to garlic, rather appropriate I thought.

JJB has it! I'm totally learning Garlic. It's an obscure dialect but a useful one for a gardener as it pairs well with so much of what we do.

My favourite used to be AckBay LangSay. I don’t know why , but I assumed you were a fluent Welsh speaker. Can’t speak a word of it. Didn’t move to Wales until I was 15. So did have to learn it in school.

"Allium garlicka chivé, yum vida buttrê breda!" Irish or Scottish? They’re very different apparently. Mind you, having spent a considerably amount of time trying to find a name in Gaelic for our new home. Turns out there’s different dialects as well, just to make things difficult.

Scottish and Irish Gaelic are very different to each other. What about the Scots language Pros? A lot of people think it’s slang but it’s a recognised language!

The really tricky thing about speaking Garlic is that it must be done with at least one full clove in the mouth at all times. Native speakers can usually be found with a full bulb in one cheek, but it could be years before I can do that and still enunciate the words clearly enough.
