It is said to happen along Ang Mo Kio Avenue 5, at about 2047 hrs yesterday (10 Aug 2021).
Nowadays wherever I work in the town area I often hear young Singaporeans talk English with American accents. What’s worse is when they talk they give you the impression that their very high class like that. Why must they talk with an American accent English, talking correct Singaporean English is very low class meh?
I have this female friend that always comes talk ang moh accent with me but the grammar super fail. I worked in the USA for years and I still return to Singapore and enjoy my local Hokkien words and mixing multiple languages. I got irritated and I started to intimidate her.
Me: Why you speak with ang moh accent? Your foreigner?
Her: I hang out with my american friends regularly so i started to speak like them and I sound more atas.
Me: Wah i work in US for several year but no ang moh accent lei. Don’t act one kind la. Your grammar also fail
After that, she no longer speaks in an American accent and talks normally. Please la want act atas or act u ang moh pai go Jia sai first la.
He starts the post by saying that Oxford English Dictionary’s word of the day on our National Day (9 Aug) is Chicken Rice, and says that his favourite order is thigh meat and the spare parts.
He also urges Singaporeans to support our local hawkers as dining-in resumes today and also to remember practicing safe distancing and to return our trays after we are done.
