Was at Boulevard Hypermarket this noon. Heard this over the P.A. system.
"Attention, attention. Owner of... Please go to... immediately. Your car is BLOCK the FLOWING of traffic."
That doesn't sound right, does it? Has 'broken English' become synonymous with 'Manglish'? Heheh... I know... I mentioned before that as long as people can understand the msg, it doesn't matter how it's conveyed but still... don't murder the language like this! Our government is complaining abt the national language being 'butchered' noawdays. I guess BOTH languages face the same fate.
There's this book in Belle's... The title's quite cool... sth like this...
'If you don't understand it, it's not french'

You got to be used to to this kind of thing. Engrish as we speak is quite common here, sadly. But still, ppl make mistake bah.. Forgive them lo.. haha
yelao... but... it's kinda embarassing how tourists walk in2 a shopping mall n 'ur car block the flowing of traffic.'
Haha as long as the one who says that is not you, it's alright then.. hehe
