Actually, a good old scrap was happening between some of the indigenous inhabitants and a band of Chittagonian sampan wallahs. . . . Cecil decided to learn any local languages whenever he was posted to a new place because it would be beneficial to his job. So, he learnt the Mon language and he also remembered a certain Talaing (Mon) language. He learnt it under the guidance of his Court Interpreter. He knew the phrase “to strike a match” in the Talaing which was “harak tik tuk”. . . .

In Tagalog, we call this 'pera'. If you don't have this, you'll die of hunger." "P-era." He said money in Tagalog. "Wow! Cool! When I say 'money'."

“It's unusual for you Xania kaya nakakapagtaka talaga. (It's unusual for you Xania so it's really a wonder.)” “Anong sinasabi mo diyang 'unusual'? Huwag mo nga akong englishin Axton. Ang hirap na nga sabihin pangalan mo, English-englishin mo pa ako. (What are you saying 'unusual'? Don't speak English to me Axton.
