Regional and rural is fine -- it's sounds quaint and traditional, and makes us wax nostalgic about simpler, happier times. Should anyone get too Ma and Pa Kettle on our ass, we just take 'em out back and put 'em out of our misery.

I'm sure the Géarthçins would get a chuckle or two out of that one as well...

OTOH, the Sōkoans find Japanese easy to learn.
