This English isn't that hard to understand once you get used to the accent. I am from the North West of England and once when I was a teenager I had to go to Newcastle, a city in the North East, for an interview. The dialect there is called Geordie. With younger people it's more of a sing-song accent, but with old people, especially back then, it was practically like a foreign language when you heard it. I stopped an old man for directions and after asking him to repeat himself twice, I gave up, thanked him politely and decided I'd just have to hope for the best. Maybe I'd find my destination by accident.

I find the Geordie accent easier to understand compared to the Northern Irish or Glaswegian accents. In Asia where Man Utd is one of the most popular clubs, they often had to subtitle Sir Alex Ferguson's interviews even in English-language media.

Honestly other than the switches out of English, easier to understand for me than someone from Glasgow by far haha To a native speaker, "how many money" is totally understandable even though it sounds funny. I think its harder for people who are speaking English as a second language who have a different language as their first. But if your first language is English, Singlish is pretty clear. Chop his vegetable head doesn't make any sense on its own for example, but we'd probably guess the meaning more or less by the context.

Singlish wasn't meant for English speakers to understand. It was a way for our ancestors and early settlers to communicate with one another because they lack a common language. The only way Malay, Chinese, Indians could communicate was through a pidgin that developed into a creole language. Don't worry, we don't expect you to know Singlish, it's cringe when others try to imitate it as well. For the Mandarin, I'm pretty sure my Taiwanese and Malaysians have no problem understanding me. That's the same as how Singaporeans don't understand how some Northern Chinese speak as well.

Their accent plus their pronunciation and lack of knowledge of how to make a proper sentence is what makes it difficult to understand, I'm not that great with english either since it's not my first language but I'm more used to listen the accent from USA and european countries

Trust me, we can understand lol. At least Americans probably can because even our own English is so broken and full of words from other languages we can pretty much pick up any accent/dialect/etc out there lol. Not to mention the very large amount of immigrants. You can honestly get by pretty well here with even basic English.

I'm a native English speaker from South Africa and understood nearly all they were saying, except for the few slang/loan words here and there. Probably helps that many people here have a very strong accent when speaking English too, so I'm more used to different pronunciation, and we also have tons of loan words from other languages. Funnily enough, I found this easier to understand than some British accent videos I watched lol, some of those are impossible, not to mention that Irish farmer, I've watched that video like 5 times and still barely have a clue what he is even saying (and he's speaking English!)

As a Malaysia , need to translate this English accent to malay in my head first ,then figure it out in English back to understand it, Singlish= "My friend said ah , this price ah, smelly-smelly can get 2 computer" Malay= " kawan saya cakap , harga macam ni busuk-busuk pon beli 2 computer" English=" my friend tell me, that he can get 2 computer for the same price"

Honestly, I appreciate Singaporeans who embrace Singlish rather than those who deny it exists and brag about how 'perfect' Singapore is. Singlish could be the one single thing that is uniquely Singaporean instead of the 'European Country in the East' that some Singaporeans dream of. Beauty is in the imperfection, my friends.
