MAD WEATHER. SO FREAKIN WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRMMMM!!!! *wails*
anyway, just to share some new knowledge hehe
i got this from the novel i was reading earlier on.
well, i don't know how common is this in singapore *scratch head* but have you guys ever heard of the term "cryptolalia" before?
well, it's a scientific term for twin-speak. now what's twin-speak? strangely, it is something very very common and happens amongst twins. it shows up in almost all cases of multiple births. It is whereby amongst these children e.g. between a twin sibling, they talk to each other in a language "we" cannot comprehend nor understand at all. we can neither learn it. unless they teach us or something. the secret language of twins isn't all that complicated, but a set of quintuplets can invent a language so complex that its grammer book would run to three volumes. it would usually be dropped after the children grow up to about 3 or 4 years of age.
well i got this piece of 'knowledge' from David and Leigh Eddings novel, Regina's Song
