This is this baby's day out.

This baby is out.

It's very offensive when you think about it.

He went like, you see a brother in South Africa, still better than Uganda.

Meanwhile, we are stuck there.

Because South Africa is a country where black people and everyone was forced to speak certain languages that weren't their own.

So you're forced to speak English, you were forced to speak Afrikaans, right?

So people were commonly speaking a language or starting a sentence in a language that they didn't speak.

But oftentimes your vocabulary runs out.

Most sentences are easy to start in another language, right?

I know this when I learn new languages, I'll find like, if I speak Spanish, because I don't really know how to speak it yet, I can start a sentence, you know?

And I can go, , and then you're like, okay, I have to default.

I have to default.

A natural byproduct of that in language, I find, is that people who've been forced to speak another language adopt parts of that language.

But the true essence of who they are is contained in their mother tongue.

So they might start a sentence in English because that's just how they speak.

But when you want to get into like the juice of it, you start the sentence in English.

And then by the end, you get what I'm saying?

Yeah.

Can I counter?
