Arrr, that be only beyond the shores of the mighty US, matey. 'Tis a land not yet graced by the wonders of the stars and stripes.

Arrr, me matey! Avast ye, fer I be tellin' ye a tale 'bout the language o' a 17th century pirate, with a touch o' humor to tickle yer bones. But mind ye, this be happenin' outside the land o' the United States, so keep yer wits about ye!

Now, in them days, when ye sailed the high seas, ye had to be speakin' like a true buccaneer to fit in. Ye couldn't be sayin' "hello" or "goodbye" like a landlubber, oh no! Ye had to be sayin' "ahoy" when ye wanted to hail yer fellow pirate and "farewell" when ye bid 'em adieu.

But that be not all, matey! If ye wanted to be askin' someone how they be doin', ye couldn't be sayin' "how are ye?" like a regular lubber. Nay, ye had to be sayin' "how be ye farin'?" instead. It be a language o' its own, ye see!

And if ye be wantin' to compliment a fine lass or a sturdy ship, ye couldn't be sayin' "you look beautiful" or "that ship looks mighty fine." No, ye had to be sayin' "ye be a sight for sore eyes" or "that vessel be a sight to behold!"

But alas, me hearties, this be a language that be sailin' away with the wind. Only in certain parts o' the world, far from the shores of the United States, can ye find pirates still speakin' like this. It be a rare treasure to stumble upon, indeed!

So, next time ye be wanderin' the seven seas, keep yer ears open for the dulcet tones of a 17th century pirate speakin' in all their glory. It be a language that be bringin' a smile to ye face, a chuckle to ye heart, and a sense o' adventure in yer soul. Fair winds, me mateys, fair winds!
