eeegads mates, the Royal Navy must have cut out many tongues (and/or salty digits). Well let me be the first to say Arrrgh (not Savvy, which is an aboriginal american term).
I publish The Pyrates Way magazine (www.pyratesway.com) and would invite ye all to check out said publication as I am in hopes to further include the pyratical side of re-enactment into our subject matter!

Nay, ye 're not the only pyrate. But are they truly sure that a pirate of old said "Arrrrgh"?

You are right to question the manner and speech of pyrates, Raeven. This is just one of the stereotypes are crew is trying debunk.
Of course, this would all depend on if you what to be a Real Pyrate or a Reel Pyrate (Hollywood) - Great topic of discussion.
This that being said, September 19, 2007 is "Talk like a Pyrate Day".

That whole "arrrrgh" thing has always gotten to me.
I definitely agree with the Reel Pyrate aspect but I do think for the most part except for 'Savvy" and a few other words, the accents in POTC were closer than anyone else has gotten. The majority of pyrates were either British Isles, Spainish and then the few spatterings from other coutries. So some would have a 'cockney' accent,( i.e. 'ello).
Now others if they were Privateers or Cosairs; they would be more educated, and would have spoken proper English or French.
"Talk like a Pyrate Day" if you live in the right part of the country, they are having a lot of parties that day. I am in J-ville so the closet to me in Fort Lauderdale. And with the 19th being in the middle of the week, I don't see it happening. ;D
