"We’ve made progress, but no real revelations. Our level of language comprehension is good enough to not be suspicious. There’s regional variability, and we haven’t catalogued a lot of the colloquialisms sufficiently yet, but thanks to the sabbatical thing, it will probably even out. So you’ll probably always be able to understand the locals. There are some things we haven’t been able to get a handle on. Maybe you’ll find out more on your travels."
