Discuss The Walking Dead

Has anyone come up with a logical answer as to how 'The Garbage People' speak the way they do?? Judging by Judith's age, it's only been a few years since the zombie apocalypse. So how do a bunch of people go from discarding perfectly good English, to speaking like weirdos??

I missed that. So she really knows how to form proper sentences but is just putting on that affectation?

Yea don't you remember her talking to Rick when they were stuck in the landfill. Rick and Michonne got away by blocking the walkers with a fridge door. Jadis was begging to go with them. They left her there and then she chopped up all the walkers.

She was having a perfectly normal conversation with Rick and saying she used to go to the Junkyard to find material to paint on....

On the last episode she even cleaned herself up and dressed like a normal human. Not to mention her living quarters are quite nice to say the least. I'm guessing everyone's rooms were pretty nice inside those hidden containers.

I guess I forgot about that scene, or was in the kitchen or something. So she is like the King, just using that act to give her followers some structure.

Yea I guess something like that...

@Je_suis_le_vampire_Lestat Your explanation would make sense if Jadis continued to talk like that after all her people died.

Her way of speech became perfect English when Rick and Michonne found her. So it's unlikely that she's uneducated. They simply wanted to be different.

Yaaaas we all realise that now.

Sorry. I wrote my reply to you before reading through all the posts.

My bad.

Coolio.
