i think we singaporeans becoming more lc alr ! in terms of speaking proper english, i think we'rew quite unsatisfactory.
imagine you go up to a troubled friend and you ask,"a penny for your thoughts?" that person would probably reply,"HAR?! what??" something along that line lah. then it will render you helpless as you switch to singlish mode,"what you thinking, leh?"
we shall start a new movement! the 'speak powderful english movement' (spem) and soon everyone will be going,"sorry, i didn't quite understand that last point you made" or "have i seen you somewhere before?" INSTEAD OF "HUH? repeat!" or "you veli familiar sia, when i see you before one ar?"
it's 11:36 and im damn tired.im going to slp now :] gdnite
