About all the Spanish I know. Had a couple short Peruvians stop by and want a big lamb for a party Saturday night. Now I got to catch one of the big February lambs, as they already paid me.
I got out of them they worked for a sheep outfit in Blackfoot ID. for 6 years and a few years for a Rancher I know in Randoff UT. Then the last 2 years for a big cow-sheep outfit in Worland WY (know the ranch they have a 11 quarter circle brand and I have a quarter circle 11 brand).
Had a Sicilian that bought a little 40 lamb early this summer, could understand him, but then he had lived in Florida for 30 years
 
Well that's pretty interesting. A chap just up the road keeps a few sheep on a little field close to the barn and he often has a few guys from the city stop by, wanting to buy lambs.

He does quite well by them as they usually offer him more than he would get at the sales barn.

Sometimes he has to supply a garden hose and front end loader for an hour as they want to slaughter the lambs right there, but gets a few more dollars for those little extras!

Cuts out all the middlemen and it has helped pad his kids college fund over the years. But he hasn't learned any Spanish or Portuguese!
