I actually hate hearing Singaporeans speak overseas. It makes me cringe. The Singaporean accent is unpleasant to hear. Hard, flat, jarring. British (not all the accents, mind you) and American, maybe Canadian, too) sound better.

Hey Christina! I just wanted to let you know that I love how friendly, kind, respectful, and chill you are when learning about other people's cultures, languages, and customs. In some other videos, I actually was slightly upset at Emily (the girl from the UK) because she seemed very sassy, rude, and down right b*tchy to you when you guys were in a video comparing the US with the UK. Not cool. She made it seemed like the US was sh*t. Sorry you had to deal with that. Anyways, just wanted to let you know that you are a joy to watch in these videos because you are so upbeat, nice, amicable, and courteous.

It’s because Singlish is heavily influence by Mandarin and other Chinese dialects which have much simpler grammar and sentence structure than English. Singlish is a beauty because it combines the simplicity of Chinese grammar without the complex intonation of Chinese languages. It might come of as “rude” in English sense but it’s just much more efficient way to communicate

i think the "lah" comes from malay. coz in malay you'd add in the "lah" to soften the tone or make it more friendly. e.g. to tell someone to sit, you'd say "duduk lah" vs "duduk", the former sounds more like an invitation vs the latter which makes it sound like a command.

People in the group have less exposure to the other side of the world or continent and they/the audience learn a lot more since it's not in the same realm of language families.

I lived in Singapore for a good few years when I was young, but I came to the US in 3rd grade and I lost my accent! I also don’t remember the young kids in Singapore using the extra words from other languages, but the “can” and “cannot” and the “lah, leh, meh” really lit up my memory, haha. I haven’t been able to go back to Singapore in the recent years because of COVID and also my family is Chinese so we normally visit China as a priority, but I would absolutely love to go back and see how different my English is now than how it was a couple years ago when I was still back in Singapore

Interesting video. I am a Sri Lankan living here in Singapore for nearly five years now. Almost used to Singlish, and I am enjoying it. Another thing, Singaporeans make the sentence past by inserting the word “already” into the end. Eat already instead of ate Go already instead of went They pronounce the word already as “o ready.” 😆

This was a fun Singlish video! Jo did a great job using the Singlish terms in context, with clear examples. And Christina and Grace had a lot of fun with the lesson! I had not heard any of these Singlish terms before. It shows off an interesting melting pot of cultures and language in Singapore.

Singlish has more borrowed phrases from Southern Chinese Dialects (Teochew, Hokkiens, Cantonese, Hakka, Hainanese) than Mandarin. Before 1970s, the common Chinese Language was not Mandarin but the Southern Chinese Dialects.

for those who dont speak english as their first language technically, singlish wld be easier for them to understand since we dont use proper grammer. but it also might not be easy to understand as we talk v fast and the ‘sounds’ we make can mean very different things so overall depends on the tone we say it in

hi Jo; Your Singlish is Talk Kong! and it accurate and i am glad you keep it alive. Respect to your two Participants too; Come to Singapore and i blanja them durians. Sadly the government tried to dilute it but we are know it is for informal setting. Even our Singapore Fighter pilots use Singlish when there exercise with American pilots; they keep losing because they can listen to our pilots normal American communications and they switch to singlish and confuse the US pilots because they cant decode a mixture of 4 languages. They won the fights at last

I'm from Malaysia, and I have some cousins that went to work in Singapore. I feel very sad when they described how they're looked down on and discriminated just because they can't catch the Singaporeans' "fast and quick" communication. They're speaking too fast that not even Americans speak so fast.
