ooh wow, unique mix. mashAllah. Yemeni seem to be open minded then in giving their Arab daughters to us "Hindis." It is unheard of in Saudia

 

[Al-Indunisiy]

I often mix Latin, Arabic, English, Indonesian, Javanese, etc. in my speech.

I call my parents Mater, Pater (Latin) or Mutter, Vater (German) or Umm, Abb (Arabic) or Ma, Pa (Indonesian abbreviated).
Interjections I often use: Yalla!, Ya Waylatany! (Arabic) and Oy! (Yiddish).

I also sometimes write English and other foreign languages in modified Arabic characters.
And I love to speak in numerous accents.

We have it too... we called it Bahasa Rojak (Rojak language) - the word of rojak came from the word of a 'mamak' dish which the ingredients are mixed together...hmm...

At home me n my family do it everyday :hiding:

In Indonesia, we call mixed language like this as 'bahasa gado-gado' (gado-gado language).

Gado-gado itself is a dish which vegetables, egg, tahu(tofu), tempe, etc, are mixed together.

Salaam. Welcome to IslamicBoard, laah.

I don't know much about Arab people in Malaysia, but in Indonesia, majority of Arab people are descendants of Yemeni. Or in exactly, their ancestors were came from Hadramaut.

['Aleena]

Its very common in India. its officially called HINGLISH(a mixture of hindi and english).
pichle year mein:
me:why r u sitting here? lecture nahi attend karna h kya?
friend:nope. Last lecture he(our maths Prof.) threw me out of d class!
Me: Kyu? what did u do!!
friend: nothing much. u know na i dont like maths so i normally bunk his lecture. last lect was my first after term 1. he has asked me to bring my father. kya zabardasti h! if dont feel like attending his lecture then me nhi attend karungi!
(k it is a bit exaggerated)

 

[~Raindrop~]

English and Urdu isn't as bad as mixing Hinko with Urdu. As the majority of our family can only understand Urdu and not speak it well, the results are really quite amusing.

 

[Aisha20]

I do mix spanish with gujrati or gujrati with english!!

 

[Soulja Girl]

Mum: Kaam kairu ke na..
Me: I'm kaam kar-ing amra..

:><:

:wa:

 

[Afifa]

another exmaple.. Mums says chu nai check kur ( check the tea [on the stove] )
and we'll reply: the chu is ukair-ing :hiding:

More commonly known as guj-lish :coolious:

 

[Beardo]

I speak Banglish quite often.

Oh, which reminds me of a funny conversation...

My Aunt: Can you speak Bangla?
My Cousin: Na, ami bangla bolthe pari na. (Translation: No, I can't speak Bangla.)

Do you get it?

 

[freezium]

we here speak punjabi and urdu..and now we are in habbit of using english words in our routines...sometimes it makes the situstion amusing and funny...

like once my sister and cousin got in argument and it was like

my sister :huh!!!!my foot

My cousion(cudn't pick for the instance and replied ):huh ..tay my v leg..........lolx(and my leg......)
