Examples of Hindlish/Urdlish - one of the many emerging creoles of English
My friend Preeti Suba on my other friend Nadeem Butt's facebook site. Urdu uses arab script, Hindi sanskrit script. They've adapted words and phrases from English, using the roman script for Hindi/Urdu. The world is certainly an interesting place, isn't it? BTW Singlish is even weirder what with Mandarin, Hakka, Malayan, Tamil and English all smooshed together. Our maid Mei was a riot to listen to.
