They are clever at inventing nonsense words to run easily off the tongue. For instance:-

[Listen] [XML]

Away, away oui oui Madame.

I never see the sight of Robart,

I never see the sight of F'edrick,

Ding dogaraggaway,

Ding dogaraggaway,

Ding dogaraggaway,

Ding dong.

("Away" is clearly a corruption of oui oui.)
