(Who cares? I certainly don't. I (and, I suspect, xorxes, too) was a
little baffled by bebylan. I remember there being a guideline about
using the words the native would use. Why do you think Chinese is jungo
and not canso? Believe it or not, English is not the standard for
everything. Sorry for reacting so strongly.)
