speak potable

The term "speak potable" originates from the Italian peninsula; it is a coined expression to convey the need for a more fluid and understandable conversation, akin to potable water. If someone "speaks potable," it means they are proficient in expressing themselves well in the language.

Example 1:

Rizu: "I'm preparing a presentation for tomorrow's meeting."
Slurp: "Make sure to speak potable; we need to be clear with all the details."

Example 2:
Slurp: "I overheard their discussion, but they didn't seem to speak potable at all."
Rizu: "It's important to communicate clearly, especially in important conversations."

Speak now, or forever hold your piece

Refers to where da irate "paw" of a redneck chick is permitted only one opportunity to protest a horny stud's getting his "little pumpkin" preggo before he is permanently barred from demanding a shotgun wedding.

In da infamous "history of da yodel" tale, da enraged farmer unwittingly missed his single chance at recourse against da nameless traveler who had "gotten it on in da hayloft" with both his daughter AND his wife da night before --- said sly seed-spreader simply "had his fun" and then quietly slipped off far away before da man even knew what had happened --- and thus said furious family-head was made a victim of da old "Speak now, or forever hold your piece" scenario.
