Yea that would be tough
Great share, thank you. The closest I came to anything of this was Saint Martin Island. 1/2 Dutch and 1/2 French. A phone call from the Dutch side to French side and vice versa is an international call.

PO1 Tony Holland Huh What? Confusing and Beautiful at the same time though. On a Certain Level I can Understand what the Author is Talking About. I'm German American raised in a German Irish Community. Thru Grandparents and Neighborhoods I was exposed to Some German. German and English come from some ancient base so as Long as something isn't said in High German I can actually follow some words. I was Raised Catholic just after Vatican II so I've been exposed to some Latin and I took French in Jr High so I can follow some words in Spanish since the are so Close to their Latin or French equivalent. I occasionally get a rise out of the Spanish Cleaning Crew they'll be talking to each other and out of the blue I'll respond to them with even Me hardly noticing and then they'll ask if I speak Spanish which is No but I can follow a little bit.
