Pidgin/Filth



*** quote
Therefore, I don't think that the concept of "crude" should apply when
Musashimaru speaks in pidgin (including swear words) to Konishiki or any
other
fluent pidgin-speaker.  They're speaking another language.

Pidgin is not another language, it is an uneducated attempt at English.
And no

respect -
this guy is supposed to be a role model.

I lived in Hawaii for over 4 years.
The "other language" of Hawaii - is more truly Hawaiian.
