Yellow Answers: Revealed & Explained
DIALECT
LANGUAGE
SPEECH
TONGUE
This one felt the sluttish , although TONGUE could have been in the next family for fairly obvious reasons . However , it has alsolong been a word assort with LANGUAGE and DIALECT . SPEECH is the oddest one here in my opinion , as voice communication is more about a undivided second as play off to an acquire process - perhaps idealized by Aragorn ’s speech at the Black Gates - but it does make enough sense to be here .
