On Saturday I threw a party. Most of the people there know that I
speak Lojban. At one point some of my friends started singing a simple
repetitive song which could be sung in many styles. One singer invents
a style and everyone repeats after them. After they invented several
styles, one of them said, "Matt, sing it in Lojban!" And to my
amazement and their delight, I could, and they followed along.

I would not have done that if none of them had known what the language was.
