Which Reminds Me

Yes, we have noticed that your idiomatic bets have been accumulating, to quote a vernacular and cliched expression not suitable for use in the writing of academic papers, needless to say. But of course what would you verbal purists know about colloquialisms and figures of speech when you speak mainly a bland and tasteless form of Esperanto, which universal language has its place, of course, but you do not seem to be able to make the leap needed for hearing the lesser beings of dialect and other hackneyed verbal patterns of whatever source. Not everyone has yet attained that universal plain and/or high level of Ph.D. linguistic and language studies that might be a ticket to some other place.
