Don't eat the preko! It's treif
As mentioned on a previous blog I (sadly) never learned how to speak the languages of my forefathers. BUT I can now say three lines of the Lion King by heart.
In English:
Simba: Man, I'm stuffed.
Pumbaa: Me, too. I ate like a pig.
Simba: Pumbaa, you *are* a pig
In Twi:
Simba: Yie, mi be pie
[lit: boy, I'm going to burst. Yie pronounced: yee ay (ay as in April); Be pronounced as in bed; pie and in a pie]
Pumbaa: Mi insu. Mi didii ti se precko.
[Precko prounced as in 'echo']
Simba: Wo ye precko
[Wo pronounced as in Would; Ye as in Yes]
In a month or so I'll be going to the "Jewish bloggers convention" Should be interesting
