Neither. But I was referring to Sardinian, the language spoken on the island of Sardinia/Sardegna.

Mind you, some may think of my utterances as fish speak - blowing (hot) air.

I did try to get in on the first one, but not sure of the best way to post.
I had something like "Yay I'm in!" copied and ready to paste, I then pasted it under Post Quick Reply below the first post I saw.
Is this is the right or best way to do it??
