Galach misconceptions?

Post by SandChigger »

This thread over on the DN BBS is proving quite amusing...and saddening...at times.

For example:

so it doesn't matter, because they're probably speaking a language at most remotely related to the english language.

Oh, don't worry, I've seen enough of his posts to have him pegged already. :?

It's really kinda sad how dumbed down it has gotten over there.

But only in some ways. ;)

No, I don't think it's Galach at all, but some form of Fremen Arabic or Chakobsa. :wink:
