xkcd is a webcomic of romance, sarcasm, math, and language.

 

Great, LO-M. Do you speak Bocce? I'm supposed to find one that speaks Bocce.

Parenthetically Speaking"Great, LO-M. Do you speak Bocce? I'm supposed to find one that speaks Bocce."
Notes[N1] [e] L O [h] [i] M

[N2] In the Star Wars saga, Luke Skywalker's uncle needed someone to talk with the moisture vaporators. The Baobab Merchant Fleet created Bocce using elements from multiple languages.

OWEN: What I really need is a droid that understands the binary language of moisture vaporators.

THREEPIO: Vaporators! Sir -- My first job was programming binary load lifter...very similar to your vaporators. You could say...

OWEN: Do you speak Bocce?

THREEPIO: Of course I can, sir. It's like a second language for me...I'm as fluent in Bocce...

OWEN: All right shut up! (turning to Jawa) I'll take this one.

THREEPIO: Shutting up, sir.

-- Owen Lars and C-3PO
