    atas is the word for up in malay and indonesian.... so it can literally mean up/tall and people use it to describe high end or something is 'up there'.

    Hey, Ghib OJISAN. You married a Singaporean 🇸🇬 wife and you pick up Singlish, like me I am also married to a Singaporean 🇸🇬 wife, but I didn’t / never picked up any Singlish from my wife 🧐.
    By the way… you missed out KIASU (afraid to lose) and KIASI (afraid to die).
    You might know that in Japan 🇯🇵, when girls are shocked or scared of something, they shout out “KIA !”

      Singlish vernacular uses a lot of Malay and dialect words tho. But I suppose the spirit of Singlish is the beats and the stressors that aren’t found when speaking with ang mohs, which is somewhat lacking here.

      You are wrong. Oxford definition of Singlish:
      An informal variety of English spoken in Singapore, incorporating elements of Chinese and Malay.
      Obviously malay and chinese words are part of singlish. Please read up on what defined as Singlish before sounding like a fool 🙄
