June and Jennifer Gibbons were born on April 11th 1963, and were identical twins who lived in Wales and were known as the Silent Twins because they only ever communicated with each other. They started speaking in a more quirky version of the language and it was soon that literally nobody else could understand. One of the articles I read said “their language, or idioglossia, qualified as an example of cryptophasia, exemplified by the twins' simultaneous actions, which often mirrored each other. The twins became increasingly reserved and eventually spoke to no one except each other and their younger sister Rose.” But what really happened to the twins? Were they really as close as everyone thought they were?

Stay safe out there.

With love,

Saaniya and Maddie x
