When not reading, how do we know if a letter was a capital letter or
not?
Context!
Bollox don't e.g. understand the graphically speech of comics, when they
talk about e.g "Sprechblasen" they never ever are talking about speech
balloons, they are talking about a blow job, while intellectuals never
ever would use the German equivalent to blow job, they would talk in
ancient Greek and Latin, IOW it would be fellatio.
Intelligentsia Rock'n'Roll-Punk-Musicians as me are able to speak
ancient Greek and Latin, but we prefer the vocabulary of the bollox,
this indeed results in "nobody is able to understand us", neither the
"bollox", nor the "intelligentsia". They need to listen ton our f...ine
guitar playing/music to understand what we are talking about.
