hello lah!
From what I can find on the Internet, encyclopedias and other reliable sources in Singapore said in the four official languages \u200b\u200b- English, Mandarin, Malay and some where even the fourth, I forgot, but I do not want to check it out now, because so it does not matter here. Four languages \u200b\u200b- so says the official records (oh, the fourth is a Tamil - already!).
If someone would be a little more inquisitive, you probably would find the information somewhere, Singaporeans have referred to the local variety of English not Angielski, but Singlish. ( note reader, already at this moment in your head should sound a warning bell - what does it mean variety of English?) OK - you think, cool name, have joined Singapore and Angielski - super, you are just have ideas.
Only you can find information on the Internet. Nothing more. A single Bruczkowski Martin (this from "Sleepless in Tokyo", who does not read, let him regret - excellent book) in his new position "Singapore - four in the morning" - note, quote: "shows the reality of life in Singapore. He uses colloquial language, while safely carry out the intricacies of Singlish"
Hmm - time perhaps for the second bell, do not you think? crookedness, you say?
Well, yes. Singlish are characterized by some crookedness. If official sources are silent on this subject, I you a bit about the whole truth. In general, these small crookedness briefly consists in the fact that
This language is not nothing to do with ENGLISH AND TOTALLY CAN NOT to understand it!! If
Singlish would I describe sound with words - a task which is extremely difficult, if not beyond human possibility - I asked you (while maintaining a maximum of kindness, tolerance and openness to other cultures), imagine ye combination of sounds made by:
A) wcieklego cock fighting with another cock
B) tile fleeing attached to the tail can (for my household - just Hebe)
C) Cubasy from the tale of Cubasie - do not know if you remember, this Japanese tale of Poles 7 fly , about a young pilkarzu - if not, do not worry, may be any other character from Japanese cartoons, preferably one that often upset state of agitation, and began to speak very quickly
OK. Imagine a combination of these three sounds. But really, imagine that. Crazy rooster, cat panicked and furious Japanese.
N Araz .
Now przyspieszcie obtained effect - yet ... more ... yet! The target speed is about 3 - 4, with gusts of up to 5-6 words per second. On the second, yes.
OK, I already have it. Now, at the end of every sentence add the word LAH, LA pronounced - but not the usual la (remember to rabid Japonczyku), only those la, the sound of whose imagination is the sight of a falling guillotine you ( la! .)
OK. Recent job. Now this sounds crazy stream Put some places (as 1 in 10) words that the maximum concentration and enormous effort can possibly pass as some English words.
You have it?
Well, these are the " minor crookedness, which represents a Singlish. :) Not everyone uses this extreme Singaporean odmiany.Niektorzy speak normally. At the same time it is not either-or, more whole spectrum of possibilities with the case described above, on the one hand (100% Singlish) and the normal, perfect English on the other. I personally no longer understand anything Singlish for content exceeding 70%.
I have referred, they are defiantly English, pshaw! Various English I heard in my life!
Best of all is that somehow the second one is able to understand:))
good bye lah ! A) wcieklego cock fighting with another cock
B) tile fleeing attached to the tail can (for my household - just Hebe)
C) Cubasy from the tale of Cubasie - do not know if you remember, this Japanese tale of Poles 7 fly , about a young pilkarzu - if not, do not worry, may be any other character from Japanese cartoons, preferably one that often upset state of agitation, and began to speak very quickly

At the same time, of course, these are my observations and they have nothing to do with how the local people came to the matter. They are probably really believe the world (or at least make an impression) that this is normal English, and that people understand it. I'll tell you something in secret ...
not. Do not understand it.
We white people do not understand this language.
Pol poverty, how you answer an angry vendor Singlish a stall or a taxi driver (although this can already be worse, sometimes we were already zawiezieni not in this place, what you need), worse, when it says a professor of the leading classes, which are expected from you actively participate and to be prepared for every question it. I am really glad I would share, but, Damn, I have no idea, how do I take part, since I do not have the slightest idea what he's talking to me! If it were not mandatory presentations displayed on large screens, I would not even know what the subject says - this could be anything from talking about the weather to challenge me on the deadly duel - and so the only response, which have succeeded him in August to get away from me, would be the method "In Jurek, checked in Polish conditions warfare (where it also proved its effectiveness), that is polite, a light smile, look straight in the eye and gently nod. Works, do not ask. Fortunately.
I decided not to count on it throughout the semester (what else, so the logic, if I sat for 5 months so that its only slight, polite smile and nodded, then at the end of each of them, although that was not prostudencki, would have to think that this is some uncontrollable tic, possibly some light on the background of nervous disorders and something with me is not so: D) and applied a different method, more, it seems to me that rational, and simply changed the odds for those conducted by white or possibly local, who say normally. Also my final choice, if it comes to objects, are: first
Sports Marketing - my best subject - American
second Business, Government and Society - a guest at the Wharton Business School
third Small Business Consulting Experiences - local, but normal
and 4 Retailing and Distribution Management - here, unfortunately I have a local Singlish, but because I ran out of e-Dollars and I can already zabidowac for no other, this also somehow already torment.

A dodger is jeszce e $ 200 and goes on from some of the classes to another, there eng spedzi an hour, half an hour there, and you elect. I envy him, because with the desire I'd get rid of my # 4, but no I had to give a lot of No. 1 and has not been anything to me, also have what I have and now I'm trying to focus on good sides and up to a lot of that stretch. :)
And when it comes to science, then you need to know that the Singaporean students are lunatics. They are considered the best students in the world. And, man, something in it. In each subject are the groups that are implementing projects that are the basis for credit. And in every single case (each one of us has 4 items, ergo four different groups and it is the same everywhere), they soon begin to create a group to work as a mound of ants. For example, Greg joined the group on Tuesday at 17, and 19 got from each member 2str email on the method to carry out research, etc, and the first meeting of the group is on Wednesday at 8 morning and immediately formulates a hypothesis, antithesis, methodologies, share tasks, etc.. A draft, which, as God and the truth, we can do in two weeks (Kozminski hehe), must be completed in April. IN APRIL! And they zapieprzaja like - as someone in some hip-hop song said - rabbits on coke in January!
Besides, they are not at all amazing, such as the professor has a lecture, they REAL-TIME doing this in PowerPoint presentations! Seriously, I saw with their own eyes - and then as professor in August asking what do you think, what are the thoughts of your group, they just show him a presentation ready! Well, just a massacre! Our Polish students are roughly 10 times less efficient than those here. Gravity. Fortunately, They understand that we eksczejdze, we are not foolhardy enough in order to compete with them and content with the role of the consultant, who asks the group to look from a different culture (eg you know what, in Poland we would we took charge of this project for 2 weeks before the deadline, and today we went for a beer - Mommy kidding: D), addition, it is clear to them that we also podrozowaz, we are also normally be charged a lesser burden of responsibility. The ideal situation is when possible to find the so-called. Angels, a group of decent, well-educated Singaporeans, who can not totally accept and to refuse your frequent absences and doubtful substantive contribution.
I just finished such as online conference with my group from the BGS (my No. 2), during which we were wondering (okay, okay, do not flatter yourself - you looked more of what they write), among others over whether Social, moral, legal and educational dimensions of the cultural environment of Singapore limits the effective use of consumer rights is the right hypothesis Pre and where to get materials needed to carry out research, etc., and I during this interview (1.5 h) was sitting by the pool and once in a while, even jumping on to it, because the pace of thinking require local ochladzajacych session from me (otherwise I was exhausted), because here, wireless everywhere, and I could sit at the pool. Also you can safely say that, despite the lies and Singapore the equator, and everywhere you have palm trees and swimming pools, there is no escape from work - the technology out to get you everywhere.
Well, so much - in today's episode will be no pictures, because I do not quite know, how would I illustrate it, what I wrote:)
Put some soon:)
