In the following context from the novel "Lionel Asbo", what does "that smile" refer to? Is it the teacher's smile? "On the other hand, Squeers Free had in its staff an exceptional Learning Mentor---a Mr Vincent Tigg. What's going on with you, Desmond? You were always an idle little sod. Now you can't get enough of it. Well, what next? I fancy modern languages, sir. And history. And sociology. And astronomy. And... You can't study everything, you know. Yes I can. Renaissance boy, innit. ...You want to watch that smile, lad. All right. We'll see about you. Now off you go." Thank you! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 222.128.177.53 (talk) 08:41, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
I was reading this article: Mythical origins of language and I wondered if there is in Japanese mythology some legend about the creation of the Japanese language. --151.41.156.175 (talk) 13:25, 3 July 2014 (UTC)
