Er.......how do i start this thread without offending anyone?
I am having trouble understanding SOME of the threads.......
is this due to singapore's version of english? 'cause it's all spelt in english.
Thx for your patience with me.

Even ang mos can read the threads here, why cant u???

Which part of the world r u from?


Hope u understand what I'm asking.

[2fast4u]

UK mate!! and the only reason i can't understand SOME of the threads is because SOME of you add in hokkien and other chinese dialects into the text....so how on earth am i supposed to understand!!??

I hope YOU understand where i am coming from?

[2fast4u]

As an aside, i do find it rather amusing (in a nice way) to try and understand it, one of my friends are getting rather pissed off with me for calling him and asking what is etc, etc, ie; terok.....? He has yet to call me back with that one lol!!

I'm working for a UK company n 90% of the managers here r English. They could understand the words from my mouth.

As for the dialects, juz ask n I believe the guys here would gladly translate.

I also dont understand malay or other kind of dialects, I'll juz ask ard. No problems at all. I used to work in a place where ppl speak a different dialect. I'll politely ask 4 a translation. No one person in the world understands all the different langauges n dialects.

Welcome to Singapore. Well, most of the time we all speak in a "proper" english but sometime we got carried away and communicate in "Singlish".

By the way, u haven't introduce us which country you from.

I cannot say u from where because it is considered non "proper" english. If someone asked u that, U can either answer from which country or in humor way.. "I'm from earth" or "I'm from the mixture of my father's sperm and my mother's ova/egg"
