	I would, if I knew how to pronounce '(\b|ns)' without
sounding like an alien that try to enter into contact with 
the human race. 

	But what I was saying is that it's 'le langage', but 
'la langue'. And while you can possibly have 'une langue dans
mon coeur', it evokes more of a freakish genetic anomaly than 
a linguistic affiliation. Hence the 'de mon coeur'. :)

Joy,
Yanick
