yaaa Chinglish FTW, sometimes its just hard to think of the word in canto, or i just don't know it, and when speaking to fobs (no offence), they give me this wierd face, but yea i want to strengthen my chinese, and try to learn more, its hard tho especially living in canada, i only really use it at home, and with some friends, as with a mix of friends its usually just english.
Sometimes I find myself speaking chinglish to my nonasian friends, and they just pretend they know what I'm say. Lol. And, then i go, oh yeh...I meant to say that in english.
i define Chinglish as speaking chinese using the english pronounce... its like what you always hear in the HK metro when the woman is going to announce the metro station but than the english way
Lol i speak it all the time and all my friends from hong kong are like "....what are u talking about ..?" and then we just laugh it off...
sometimes i find saying a phrase in chinese is better than in english like instead of saying "i'm the best" i say "i'm sooooo KING" where KING is in chinese
Im a BBC, im always mixing up my cantonese and english. I get funny looks from english pple on the streets wen i spk chinglish to friends - think they jus dnt expect it!!
im a BBC, and my Cantonese is alright and i tend to use both English and Cantonese in my sentences and one of my Chinese friend who came over to England to live, i speak to him in English only even though we both know Cantonese.
I only use it when I'm speaking english to my friends, but when I dont know the word in english to explain something I say it in chinese. Lol, like this one time there was someone accross my street and I was like "She look like a 'see lai'"
Haha, Chinglish. Remember those days. I'm ABC, but I can speak fluent Canto and Mando now... so no need to use Chinglish anymore
