[Ads-l] Verb or typo?

[Marc Sacks]

Probably not a typo. Lately I've been hearing an ad saying "Around here, we
Honda."

This led me to wonder how this would work in other languages:

"Nosotros hondamos"?
"Wir honden?"
"Nous hondons?"
"Anu hondenu?"
Or how about Latin: "Hondamus", Or, let'ss Honda: "Hondemus!" (Assuming
second cojugation, but take your pick.)
