He speaks maybe two words in English, that I know of. In the summer he roams around our yard planting native vegetables like bitter melon. We have so much growing and it's quite an awful tasting cucumber-like vegetable. I gestured my question to him pertaining to Why bitter melon?! He bent over and did a charade resembling an easier bowel movement! This cute man lives with his English speaking children and grandchildren and they operate the Chinese restaurant where they frequently walk to work, passing by my place. On a typical day he has a digital music device playing chanting voices. He slightly bows to me and ackwardly tries to befriend my dog with a kissing sound she doesn't approve of!
