Here's the scene I would have added:
*Canadian Dr. Rodney McKay and Spaniard Peter Grodin are in an Ancient Lab*
McKay: "Peter, come take a look at these."
*Peter and Rodney look at a case full dozens of small, triangular devices.*
Peter: "What are they?"
McKay: "I don't know, Peter! That's why I said 'Hey, Peter, come look at these.'"
*McKay actives one of the devices and it makes a sound that startles Peter*
Peter: "Ay Dios mio!"
McKay: "What did you say?"
Peter: "I said 'Ay Dios mio,' you scared the crap out of me! I thought it was going to explode."
McKay: "Say something else."
Peter: "I just did."
McKay: "Ugh! In Spanish!"
Peter: "Eres un idiota pomposo."
McKay: "You just called me a pompous idiot."
*McKay smiles about his discovery*
McKay: "I don't know Spanish...I don't even like Spanish! This must be some sort of translator device."
Peter: "I'll get Dr. Weir."
McKay: "Wait, you just called me a pompous idiot!"
*End scene*

aAnubiSs is on the same track I hinted at. EYU86, must have overlooked the part where I said the Ancient's created a languge that evolved into English. The easiest answer is that something may have been placed in our genetic makeup to create a similar language regardless of other influences.

Blacked out for a second there, what was I saying?*Peter turns on the energy based iris while Atlantis is very low on power*
McKay - "Using power, using power, using power..."

BTW: Anyone got this in HDTV? I'd love to decode the writing on the Acnient monitor in the cotrol room. MY recording doesn't show it well enough to translate.It feels good to be alive.
Cause i've been dead for so long.
