@edwardk8477 7 лет назад

it depends on how formal u speak and how much u want to express. if u try to speak like an essay with all complete and grammatically correct sentences and rigorous logical reasoning and full detailed explanations, of course it sounds more complicated. but in real life everyone speaks in a more concise and informal way and we dont always need to explain why we make a certain choice. while u can say "can lah" in singlish when ordering a meal, we can simply say "yup" in english instead of doing a ton of nonsense compliment for the food to show we want to eat it.

@tanjames9849 4 года назад

Saw a cartoon recently. You can use 4 languages locally in one sentence in Singapore. Caption : Annek, kopi o dua, kosong , tar pow, please. (Indian, malay, chinese, english) Means: brother, 2 coffee without sugar, take away, please.

@goov6071 2 года назад

Singlish is very unique with combination of Old British and America English blended with Hokkien, Cantonese and Malay accent. Singlish is consider a languages widely used by Singaporean, PR and foreign workers. Singlish should be officially register as new language unique in Asia.

@lemakeup13 7 лет назад

it's true haha. I like Singlish but as a foreigner I find it's a bit difficult for foreigners because they mix up the english with malay and many dialects of chinese. let's say in a sentence they can use hokkien with english but in another words they will mix it with teocheow or mandarin or cantonese or even malay. the participle they use to end a sentence even uncanny for some people. maybe some neigbouring tourists from malay and indo can understand about the term of -lah and whatever but they even cannot fully understand the whole singlish.

@bruhgangsta3205 7 лет назад

lemakeup13 but the main thing is we do mix up all languages and it became singlish :)

@skeletons5674 7 лет назад

It's ok to find Singlish confusing at first. Honestly speaking, it's not really something that can be learnt in a class or textbook. Only real life interaction and time can truly 'teach' someone Singlish.

@retxeddexterable 8 лет назад

yea it's not really singlish if only hokkien singaporeans use it. thesmartlocal really fucked up there.

@traquine 7 лет назад

retxeddexterable singaporeans also use some malay words as singlish, and ive also seen afew other races other than hokkien/chinese singaporeans using "ai mai", so technically its still counted

@blackhorse7553 7 лет назад

ad87 aimai...is so common...I never heard of tank

@skeletons5674 7 лет назад

Nah, Singlish is never limited to a specific race. The phrases are simple enough that they can be inserted into any sentence just by knowing the general meaning lol.

what's the meaning of "liao"? I'm korean and lived in sg for a half year only so still dunno :L

@hongyisim1917 8 лет назад

Think of 'liao' as already. E.g. "Eh you full already?" "I full liao" - Same as "I full already". "Watch this movie already?" "Watch liao" - "Watch already". You get the drift.

@RonLarhz 8 лет назад

liao is from chinese word.means (something) is already done. example : eat liao/do homework liao/sleep liao double empahsis example : eat finish liao/shop finish liao/finish nagging liao or not
