There's a character in Name of the Rose who basically speaks this way - a sort of pick and mix european language.

IMO if TT was based on this, it would be partly on the assumption that you don't need to understand 100% of it to understand it. In other words, it's not a _strict_ language, different people might use different mixtures of words.

It's the fact that it's a mixture which means you can understand someone else's TT. Your skill at TT could then be a sort of amalgam skill for all the local languages.
