bahasa kita

I am not the most linguistic person. I speak crappy english, barely speak good french and speak malay with northern dialect. But I know good cursing sentences in various language though, enough to make my eyes popped when someone has a foul-mouthed.

Having said that, I met quite a number of my countrymen errkk countrywomen who somehow have the difficulties to speak their mother tongue because of their out of country current resident.

Slalunya pompuan aja yg mengada lebih2 nih. bajet best lidah tergeliat

I never thought that the idiom " melayu mudah lupa" is actually freaking TRUE.

I was back home yearsss ago and visited my previous rented apartment and ex-housemate. It seemed that my room has few tenanst after I left. My ex-hm was very generous and bought me few durians to welcome my visit. we shared the juicy durians with some of her roommate who I've met earlier but gave me a cold shoulder as if I am just another high school pompuan kampung keja kilang.
ex-HM: terra lagi hang makan durian noo.. abang makan ka?
AC: awat tak terra pulak, bukannya branak keluaq kot perut omputih. Dia makan ja tp tutup hidung sampai biru muka
Snob: (with an astonished face) akak ni dok obersea ka?
ex-HM: ni orang Canada nih..dok dah lebih 5 tahun
I just keep quiet cause I dont feel comfortable telling people about me
Snob: oh ya ka? boleh lagi noo cakap melayu, makan makanan kita. kak saya kawin dgn canadian, nak cakap melayu pun dah tak reti dah.. susah la dia nak cakap.. makan makanan melayu ni lagi la.. kalau durian ni jenuh dok tutup hidung dok kata bau busuk ( and she said with proud ok)
AC: (dgn muka yg penuh kehairanan) kak hang dah tinggai kat canada lama dah ka?
Snob: Ada la kot setahun

mind you she lives where the Asians are flocking every corner of the city.

haiiih.. Melayu oh melayu!

I wonder why the Malaysian are so hard up with the slang or the north American accent until they literally twisted their tongue when they speak Malays. Bukan tak boleh tp saja . Sometimes I wondered if these people were actually in other country like India or China, are they going to speak with Indian or Chinese accent?? The exactly as what they accentuated what english have done to their mother tongue.

Nak sangat aku tgk, tergeleng2 tak kepala hangpa cakap melayu slang india

Yes- I am fed up with people who said, " oh sorry , i dah tak reti cakap melayu"

and correcting me the correct way to pronouce "water" with emphasizing on T and wa become whoaTerr

gimme bloody freaking break. where I used to live for 4 years, we said water with silent T, but again aku ni muka belacan. I said water like typical malays and my American born friends have no problem understand it and dont even bother to correct it.

lu pikirlah sendiri dont call yourself Malaysian if you ashamed to be one
