Can any of you turkeys guess what this line means:

“Kakek, ko kaki kiri ku kaku kek?”

Barrie and Nick you are welcome to give it a shot. You two can even ask your indo wifes for help if you wish.

PS: I got this from an indo guy who assured me that it actually meant something.

How about the following

Kuku-kuku kaki kakak kakekku kaku kaku

Not often heard in conversation – probably because it’s tough to say!
