1. I guess being a crown prince helps in scoring women, eh?

3. What Language are They Speaking?

Jordanians don't speak Spanish, and Spaniards don't speak Arabic. They seem to be getting on quite well, though. There must be a common language. Is it English?

Why would they need to swap?

Each of their wives is...quite attractive. I'd sure be happy with either :evilgrin:

10. Boffing the Princess

It would not be a good idea for you to be caught boffing the princess. It's a nice fantasy.

5. language

It's almost certainly English.

King Abdullah speaks fluent English (his mother is/was born British)

Crown Prince Felipe speaks English, and attended Georgetown for some part of his education.

Princess Letizia I'm not sure about, but seeing as she was a TV anchorwoman, she probably speaks English as well.

9. King Abdullah went to boarding school in Massachusetts

He went to Deerfield Academy, which is about 10 minutes from my house.

7. Possibly English......

But each of them probably speaks several languages. That's usually the case for educated people in any other country but the USA.
