XIXAXA XOXAXA XUXAXA Not really Spanish for "muahahaha" etc. Sounds more like "heehaha hohaha hoohaha", and that only in parts of Mexico; in Spain, more like "cheechacha chochacha choochacha", where "ch" is the throaty buzz at the beginning of Hebrew "Chanuka".— Preceding unsigned comment added by 160.227.21.190 (talk • contribs)
- But Mwahahahaha certainly makes a lot more sense than "heehaha hohaha hoohaha", no?— Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.97.247.63 (talk • contribs)
- This use of X is furthermore an archaism, found today in "México", "Oaxaca" and a few other place names. It really should be JIJAJA JOJAJA JUJAJA (though Spanish NetHack leaves this unaltered). If you search Project Gutenberg for a copy of Don Quixote, you will find an English translation. The Spanish text, with updated orthography, is under Don Quijote.--Ray Chason 21:57, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
"Daiyen Fools" seems to be sounding rather like "Damn Fools" spoken with a southern accent, and not "Dying Fools". 92.225.199.147 13:32, 19 April 2009 (UTC)
