Reminded me of a satire I wrote about a Wimbledon line judge. Had to learn British slang--wanker, chuff, crack on, chin wag, knackered, knees up, porkies, naff, off the wicket, prat, twit, tidy, chavs, winger, snog....well, you get the picture. It was hella fun, however!

I love the idea of reverse engineering using specialized vocabulary you already know.
