Singlish is what happens when English, Malay, Mandarin, Tamil and Hokkien walk into a hawker centre and never leave. Every sentence ends with "lah", everything "can" or "cannot", and if something is good it is "shiok". The government tried to stamp it out. The people said no lah.

"Moin, how's it going?"
