They mentioned the English once, near the beginning of the article. I simply read the article too fast. Would it be too presumptuous to assume that that surgical procedure could enable them to ennunciate their own language more properly as well? Anyway, I'm thinking that the letters that they're concerned with are their "l", "f" and the "th" sound in English. Those are the letters that I noticed they had trouble with when I was over there. My name always came out as "Kerry" and "cab fare" always came out as "cab pare". Oh, well. I couldn't really ridicule them for it, though. They spoke one more language, albeit poorly, than I did.
