A. British.

(Dilwyn excepted, he speaks at least two!)

Well, two and a bit, although the French is rusty.

Do what I did the other day and knock your toes on some solid furniture (I think toes must be nature's way for humans to find furniture in the dark), and you'll soon realise just how many languages you can swear in ...

Lapskaus (N/DK), Labskous (NL), Labskaus (D), lobscouse (or scouse) (GB), .. so its quite an international word. No proof of polyglottism for saying that out load (especially with your mouth full of it)..its origin is probably onomatopoeic
