Of COURSE the Liars can't communicate easily with an outsider, unless the outsider has learned the way Liars communicate.

Neither can an Englishman communicate easily with an Dutch, except by learning the crude grunts that form the Dutchman's natural mode of expression.

The Liars have absolutely no difficulty communicating with each other.

And you have STILL not grasped the point that it is EXTREMELY EASY to get information out of a liar. It's exactly as easy as getting information out of a truth teller. In your example:

You: "Why are you eating snails for breakfast rather than eggs?"

Liar: "It's not because they were the only things in my fridge"

You, mentally translating: "Ah, it's because they were the only things in his sodding fridge."

Reader: Sighs in exasperation, then heartily parps.
