Irregular verbs in English Language are the enemy(kryptonite) of staunch Singlish supporters, they can't code switch.

[Guest Juan Pinoche]

 

 

Do the irregular verbs test in English and see if you can get all 15 right. 

 

Singlish is so simple , just stick to the normal , regular verb under all manner of speech , just change the tone, pitch and emphasis, add the lah, leh , lor, but then , confirm word endings, add a few dialects and pasar malay vocab words , hey presto , true blue Singlish speaker. 

 

But only select few can code switch from proper clipped English posh accent to low brow Singlish. 

 

Like fake Ah Lian , Michelle Chong, her fake Singlish is so irritating,  its a bloody insult to real Ah Bengs and Ah Lians.
