Description #Wikipedia:
A cockatrice is a legendary creature, resembling a large rooster with a lizard-like tail, "an ornament in the drama and poetry of the Elizabethans" Laurence Breiner described it; "the cockatrice, which no one ever saw, was born by accident at the end of the twelfth century and died in the middle of the seventeenth, a victim of the new science".[1]

So what's the official idiom there?

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

artstain In reply to CiLiNDr0 [2010-08-05 02:01:51 +0000 UTC]

official idiom is Tagalog, i think that was a twisted dialect from Indonesia.
