The Black Adder Quote

Prince Edmund: Scotsmen are barbarians! Half of them don't even speak English!
Percy: Well, what do they speak?
Prince Edmund: Oh, I don't know. It's all Greek to me!
Percy: They speak Greek?
Prince Edmund: No, I mean it SOUNDS like Greek.
Percy: Well, if it sounds like Greek, it probably IS Greek.
Prince Edmund: It's not Greek!
Percy: But it sounds LIKE Greek..."What's not Greek, but sounds like Greek?" Hm, that's a good one, my lord!
Prince Edmund: Look, it's not meant to be a BRAIN-TEASER, Percy! I'm simply trying to tell you that I cannot understand a blind word they're saying.
Percy: Well, no wonder, my lord. You never learned Greek, of course.
