omg. i realised how singaporean singapore is.
In JJ, if you listen carefully, almost EVERYONE who orders wedges, pronounces it as 'wages' so it's like.. auntie, $1 wages..
so everytime i hear that, i just wanna laugh. Because its funny, you say $1 wages and give her "wages"
HAIYA.
2nd:
The math lecturer. Cannot pronounce her words properly lah. X^2 becomes Xsquaye. Chain rule becomes change rule, product become poduct.
Lots of singaporeans can't pronounce government too. And some can't spell for shit.
You know what this means?
The government's "Speak Good English Campaign" isn't working all too well.
Ok, so i'm generalising here. But if you list open your eyes wide and listen carefully, you'll see that what i'm saying is true. And its not just the older generation that commits these offences against the english language.
In true JJ fashion, i too, am beginning to somewhat lose my ability to speak the english language well. The other day, i totally messed up my tenses and whatnot. Like "isn't", "aren't" and the like.
BLEH. Oh man, FIGHT THE POWER. WTS.

Postscript: i just realised my mom couldn't speak english all too well either. Maybe i'm being too critical, but she pronounced "crisp" as "crips". Its like waSP. not waPS.
Crapola. What is the world coming to?
