It's funny, but I actually can. I seem to know what they want, even if they can't say it exactly. I guess this ain't an NT thing I have...
One other thing, I translated my brother's often bizarre way of saying things to my parents as a child. I knew picked up some of the replacement letters he used to use, one example was "free" instead of "tree." Now imagine this all over the place. There used to be so many expressions, I can't seem to remember them now, argh, but it was cool.
It's probably not uncommon, but reminds me of good times.
