Funnily enough, the word "barbarian" for uncivilized people comes all the way from Ancient Greek slang, proverbially meaning "people who speak in these 'bar bar bar' noises".[0] It's all bar bar bar to me. :) [0]: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbarian |

Additional "fun" fact: in modern Greek, the onomatopoeia for "babbling" is "burbur".
