I agree that is a PJ.

BTW, don't use "Ma ki....." !

Remember Herbie?
I thought he was calling Dave a Hobbit!

Do beh Hossen eh! This "navajo code talker" understands you not. Must commend you on your grasp of various languages. As for myself, learnt to read and write the Russian script, didn't pick up too many Russian words. However, have picked up a great deal in writing and reading urdu; makes it easier as I can understand the spoken language. I'll make you my inspiration and go from there.

Sir, ok let me laugh first,
I regret puting the extra "b" and participating in the rumour that Dave is/was/will be a rabbit.
Sir, I have classified information that the turbunator actually did pass a racial comment, hinting at a specie which have some similarities with Symond.
It is also equally possible that he might have been inviting him for having "Makki di roti" with "Ma ki dal" a real good recipe.

Tronic, it's a fascinating subject and shows an interest in other cultures and people. Excuse the Navajo as I can't put in the critical accents otherwise it can make it useless. I bet the code breakers in the War thought that they had been invaded from Outer Space

If I could submit one more critical Navajo question, maybe you can understand why this a vital sentance...Haadila todikhil ba hooghan?
