Dilly dally has to do with what she was trying to say, according to Reno. But, um, whats a shilly shally.

Is it that hard to look in a dictionary? They're actual English words.

If I had to pick, I think they should have kept zuruzuru. Tifa is cute when she does that.

Yet it would make no sense in English, seeing as it's Japanese noises.

just get over it... what other words are there to make an equally comical noise as "zuruzuruzuruzuru" and still make sense? i thought it was pretty ingenious to use dilly dally shilly shally.

Yes it was ingenious. I could have never come up with that b/c I had never heard of a shilly shally before.

[atlanteay]

well then it's your fault because it has a meaning.
