What is Manglish and What is Malaysian English. Manglish is not Malaysian English, and Malaysian English is not Manglish.
The Manglish is the Mangled English. The vocabulary of Manglish consists of words originating from English, Malay, Hokkien, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Tamil.
The Malaysian English, on the other hand, is the Malaysian Standard English, which is a form of English used and spoken in Malaysia as a second language. Malaysian English should not be confused with Malaysian Colloquial English which is famously known as Manglish.
Below is a joke, one big joke on our Malaysian Manglish.
Even an Englishman cannot construct sentences using numeric, which is exclusive only to Malaysians and Singaporeans.
Ah Beng was asked to make a sentence using1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,10.
Not only did he do it 1 to 10, he did it again from 10 back to 1.This is what he came up with…..1 day I go 2 climb a 3 outside a house to peep. But the couple saw me, so I panic and 4down. The man rushed out and wanted to 5 with me. I ran until I fell 6 and threw up. So I go into 7-eleven and grabbed some 8 to throw at him. Then I took a 9 and try to stab at him.10 God he run away.
Sorry to those who are not Malaysians (Singaporeans can understand, too!). Malaysia is the BolehLand. Anything can happen in the country. It depends on how creative you are! =D
