Why did I ever mention Dick! Must blame it on myself. What is the equivalent of "android" in ant-ish: formicidoid maybe (sexyer of course would be: formoid). So, to quote (and adapt) a title of a book not by me:
"Do Androids dream of electric sheep?"
let me translate thusly:
Do Form(icid)oids dream of electric aphids
(aphids= plant lice =
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aphid)
only a subfamily of ants of course. I think they speak the equivalent of Brasileiro, Tupi-fining it maybe by throwing into their chatter some old-fashioned idioms of the lĂngua geral.
(subfamily/group of ants: those who milk lice.)
