1:55 OMG YOU GUYS , I ate deserts here and I love them I also eat their laska and funfact I live at 927 and this I'd 928 I can't believe you guys came to my " place " to eat , wish I could see u guys.
in case you guys not aware, kan-cheong has a noun, which is "kan-cheong-city". Enjoy Singlish. **Singlish is a way we want to express thing in a more efficient manner. If you think "see how" is a short cut, wait until someone ask you "so how huh?"
impressive dat how you 2 are sooooo assimilated into singapore.. can lah.. can meh... can leh.. you know how to use them... haha... oh... btw... subscribed.
Regarding the open coffee shop, the female version of the petticoat (we seldom wear this any more, so it refers to any sort of pieces worn to be hidden under the dress) longer than the dress - her Saturday is longer than Sunday. I find this hilarious when I learnt it from my friend, and I am still learning from my friends even though I am a Singaporean. The latest I learnt this year is Commando style, meaning skipping wearing underwear.
@@ThatLovellBolandLife cool! Let us arrange a convinience date/time is a round on me :) It it on Bishan St 22 and usually it is after the 10km loop in Macritchie the best time to go haha
I am a Singaporean how we save tables for our friends or family we put something to mark the table like hand sanitizer or tissue paper or like my parents use me to mark the table
Do you know that the Singapore government is very concerned about the usage of singlish in the sitcom PCK Pte Ltd. The Prime minister at that time was worried that Singaporeans will pick up broken English and it will affect the country’s global competitiveness.
Yes! We saw the Goh Chok Tong speech on TH-cam. It was really interesting to see how a sitcom made it's way into a national day rally speech. We've really enjoyed watching PCK on Netflix over the last few weeks too.
Yes, I remember the govt's comment which set PCK to improve his English and one episode had him saying in a very ang moh accent - this plum is very.... sng 😂😂😂😆😆😆
But Singaporeans feels more connected when speaking in singlish. Ads that uses/spoken in singlish will be remembered more easily than those used in proper English.
Walao eh....these two dun pray pray. Their Singlish is very zai one....the last bit....Sam a bit lao kui....but ok la....chin chai chin chai....clap clap for them.
@@ThatLovellBolandLife I truly enjoyed watching the video. A little bit of cheeky Singlish up there. Hope it is all well....all for fun only. Thank you once again.
Alot of these are a direct translation from the hokkien example "Catch no ball". But sadly these days the new generation speak less of their dialect like hokkien, teo chew,Cantonese. I guess its mostly mandarin, english n singlish that is spoken more. I believe at least our malay n indian still speak their own language which is good. In future our chinese folks may not be able to speak their own dialect except mandarin.
Not really paising. If someone make a ridiculous claim/statement/action ,you can use "come i clap for you" too. Usually you it comes with "liddat also can. Come i clap for you." Wow din expect u know the coffeeshop open one. Rare n proves that u understand more about the locals than some other expats.
Walao eh don't say wàlao éh say wálao ēh and see how just add lor as singlish can or not say like can er (silent r) not What time already say wat time liáo
ive been to this strange city. people speak so weirdly that even the queen of england never heard of. whats funnier that their government ministers speak singlish yet they scorned on their own citizens for speaking it. #abcdefu
Walao eh...said like a pro! I am impressed!
I agree with u eh! Coincidence hor?
Haha another term you might like is ‘stylo milo’, meaning someone who’s very stylish.😊

This two Ang moh couple, their top 10 Singlish list sibei on point! ❤
How long have you guys been in SG? You have caught the gist of singlish phrases!
Hey Matthew. Nearly 6 years now and before we were in Malaysia for 2 years.
in case you guys not aware, kan-cheong has a noun, which is "kan-cheong-city". Enjoy Singlish.
**Singlish is a way we want to express thing in a more efficient manner. If you think "see how" is a short cut, wait until someone ask you "so how huh?"
Huh? More like gan cheong spider.
Very good effort. Congrats
Thank you!
Pattern more than badminton. Ha ha ha. Really fun video to watch. Thank you.
Thanks for watching!
Love the effort you put in to the video. You guys very "zai"!
Thanks. We are learning more as we go!
It's "steady". Long form->steady bom pi pi. So many younger gen think hokkien or curse words= singlish. Smdh.
6:28 no, what time liao ah?
Kan Cheong is actually Cantonese. In Chinese it’s 緊張 (jinzhang).
OR 紧张
is zhang traditional chinese?
Yes, it’s a common Chinese family name.
HAAHAAHA!
Great Funny Video!
Glad to be the 505sub to this channel~

Thanks for subscribing 😁 I think it still took us time to assimilate, but we have been here nearly 5 years now.
Do you guys use Singlish with you fellow countryman, especially those who have been n here for awhile?
The phrase "Don't play play' is actually a direct translation from Malay word "main main" , dom not proniounce it as main, but ma in
Oh wow! Great to know. Thank you for sharing! 😊
Not really . In every dialect the meaning is the same. Don't play play. Try saying it.
support from SG!
Thank you!

nice video. I wonder if you'd get a Singlish accent?
Haha. Who knows? I don't think our accents have changed much since we moved abroad but our parents probably think so
@@ThatLovellBolandLife live in Singapore for another decade and your accent will definitely change without you realising it.
Are you guys still in sgp? I hv a makan place to recommend lei
Crispy prata! You guys keen?
Hi Rahim! Yes still in Singapore. Always keen on prata 🙂

Kan cheong is actually cantonese. 😊 Walau Eh is my favourite! Flexible to be used in every situation depending on your tone.
Good to know! Thanks SANNEDEE 😊
kangcheong spider..
more likely like “relax ah dont panic”
What abt. Alamak!😊
Think it would be 1 full episode if you were to do on the word, "Can".
We think so too 😂
Haha, you have learnt so much, Singlish.
Thanks Eleanor. It's definitely a language you need to learn if you live and work here.
I'm a Singaporean

IM A SINGAPORE LAH
English: "See, I told you so. You didn't listen to my warning and now you've made a mistake."
Malay: "Kan?"
So much easier in Malay (and straight to the point too!)
