Tangled Mangled Manglish?

Oh, Manglish is so confusing! Someone please strangle me!

When it comes to English (the lingua franca of the world), it is spoken commonly in a small little Southeast Asia country called Malaysia in a slightly different manner. English isn't quite English as other people speak it in different parts of the world. Malaysians have made the English language their very own in a unique way confusing to other native users.

Malaysians use English proudly in a Tangled Mangled manner. It is known as MANGLISH!

At this blog, we try to untangle all these mangled English, and hopefully make some sense to you.

As for some confused Malaysian English students, I hope you're not using Manglish in writing your assignments. It's amusing, but not if you're trying for an A in your paper. May you untangle yourself here to a better future using proper English. =)

Homework: Find excerpts of your chats/emails/writings where it contains 'Manglish'.
