@valobasa4ever Last time I was at Fort George in the Highlands, the Black Watch were there and a group of Gurkhas. They must have been on some exercise. They two regiments were laughing and joking together, one in Scots, the others in Gurkhali. Weird to hear!
@helensusanswift [c=#800055]Rare type of experience . 馃槍[/c]

@valobasa4ever @valobasa4ever Gurkhali is an old term for the language, used by soldiers in the British Army. (I had to look that up!)
