    Featuring: Dia Alison Tan
    Video Link : • Surviving SINGLISH in ...
    Hi UA-cam family, I would like to share my SINGLISH experience here in Singapore. As defined by Wikipedia, Singlish is the English-based creole or patois spoken colloquially in Singapore. Although English is the lexifier language, Singlish has its unique slang and syntax, which are more pronounced in informal speech. It is usually a mixture of English, Mandarin, Tamil, Malay, and other local dialects like Hokkien, Cantonese or Teochew.

    Dia seems very sweet! :) "Bottle can, CAN can not" haha! I get it now :) So fun watching you guys go through these phrases. I can see how it would be easy to misunderstand someone hehe :)

      Oh, no. I'm American - I had to do some research on Singapore and got hooked on looking into the Singlish language.

    I moved to Singapore recently and I was frustrated at first for not understanding what people here are talking. I was caught in several awkward moments trying to get myself understood. In the end, I just "never mind". The way they stared at me when I couldn't catch up to what they're speaking felt like I was an idiot who doesn't understand English. Duh!
