Only if you learn it as a second language,
real people don't talk like cunts.

No, the words I use make me a cunt,
not the order I put them in.
These facts are independent.

In all fairness
I talk like that sometimes, but then I am one.

I've not picked up a single book in months.
I have forgotten a good deal of my Gaidhlig, and I almost need to start with Englisc all over again. Life sometimes gets in the way; in a good way, perhaps, but in the way nonetheless.
