** Alternately, the inhabitants of this weird world might speak their own pidgin version of English with a unique accent, that blends multiple parallel worlds' manner of speaking. We don't know how many worlds the Ferryman collects the children from, or whether the adults are natives or were brought there too. Indeed, given how the comics and podcasts depict Nowhere as a Fisher Kingdom that abducts people from all over the multiverse, it's strange that they speak English at all.

** Well... Not Evryone everyone. The Twin Chefs are still up and running in the kitchen, the same can be said for the Ferryman. Unfortunately, they wouldn't care if they free the kids, as the Chefs would likely use them to create more dishes for any other Guest that could come across the Maw and The Ferryman has probably leave the ship as well.

* In the Veronica Song, Hunter's speech, tv commercials, and bullies singing have at least SOME English words (albeit weirdly distorted). The reason why it may sound distorted is because Mono and Six may have not learned how to fully speak as they both appear to be orphans without proper schooling and never needed to speak besides "hey..." as a way to simply communicate. English words to non-English speakers IRL sound weird and distorted by at least a bit based on observation.

* Why do the chefs sometimes lose sight of Six so easily if they clearly see her slide under something to hide? Given the masks they're wearing, it likely doesn't give them really great sight. So even if it doesn't bother them while they're doing their jobs, it's pretty hard to keep up with a moving object while wearing a mask.



** It's implied that Six also gains the memories of the things that she eats, so by eating the Nome instead of the sausage, she could gain vital info about the place she was and where to go to escape. And the Nome being the Runaway Kid transfromed by the Lady, Six knew how to find her, her powers and how to defeat her.

* A frequent point of discussion in the fandom is the scale of the world, with the children being so small relative to everything to do with the adults yet there's no evidence of giant sized furniture intended for larger children. This combined with the ending of the second game may imply that in this world ''all'' children and adults are as we see them. They're born small and human-like in proportion, eventually aging into more twisted and monstrous forms once they become adults.
