Evangelese or Evangeleses?
For some reason Evangelina lately has been trying out the type of language my buddy Thomas Tsai & I like to throw back & forth -- a kind of pseudo-Southern rural talk that adds an "S" at the end of each word, or even in the middle of compound/polysyllabic words. This makes even the most mundane sentence a jumbly bundle of laughs; for example, "I want to go to the movies" becomes "I's wants tos goes tos thes movieses." I commented to her that she's getting good at speaking "Tsai-merican." Not missing a beat, she replied, "Noes, it's 'Tsais-mericans.'"
