Today my colleague asked me what’s the difference between lah, leh, loh, meh, mah, and all other Singlish as we know it.
I’m kinda used to it now, and was unable to tell him in a proper English how these should be used? Maybe I should tell him that he shouldn’t it use it in the first place, shouldn’t I ?
Anyone care to explain what are the differences between all those ?
Go to Europe, and suddenly everybody thinks you’re weird with those stuff… I thought I speak fluent English, not until I have to present to a bunch of Ang Mohs that I realized I speak fluent Singlish, and nothing near fluent English.
