Do you hang out speaking Oregon Latin?
“From the Dalles correspondent of the Statesman“, a.k.a. BUNKUM:
Other Oregon Latin, for argument’s sake (image credit: Street Dog Hero)
Now I hang out at the Dalles, or in Oregon Latin — quantisum mitlite there…
— from the Salem (OR) Weekly Oregon Statesman of August 11, 1855, page 2, column 5
Got that? It’s “the classic Chinook“.
PS: here we have hepcats saying “hang out” even earlier than I had previously spotted!
