    What language is this in and what does it say? "Si Ville, dayer de gough, toussin bussis inaro. Nojo, dems trux, summit kaus ant summit dux."

    Question #65781. Asked by zbeckabee. (May 16 06 10:09 AM)

    It's English.

    See, Willy, there they go
    A dozen buses in a row
    No, Joe, them is trucks
    Some with cows and some with ducks.

    I usually see this one as
    Civile, si ergo,
    Fortibus es inero!
    O nobile, demis trux.
    Vadis indem? Causem dux.
