[MENTION=753]Taku[/MENTION]; Out of curiosity, which variety of Engrish might this be?
I can only converse fluently in both English and Malay, the former as we learned it in schools and I've been exposed to it since I was a child, the latter as it's our country's official language and I supposed having an extra language to use helps when you know people who might not know English can use Malay to talk to you. It was the only way I could converse with my late grandmother as she didn't attend an English school in her time and thus only knew Mandarin and Malay.
