  • Singlish is basically an efficient way of speech by local Singaporeans especially younger generations. It’s a clever use of Malay, Chinese, dialects words mixed with English words and phrased using Chinese gramma structure for its directness as a base without the usual English grammatical prepositions. For example: (1) “Where do you want to go? Is spoken as “Go where” in Singlish which comes Chinese “去那？” (2) Say you ask for a deadline, English is “Can you make it by tomorrow?” Singlish is “Tomorrow can?” If the answer is yes, the respondent will reply in Singlish “Can”, or “Tomorrow, can!”

  • Bo Jio 应该是福建话/闽南话/台语的“无揪”，就是“没约”的意思， Kia Su 也应该是福建话/闽南话/台语的“惊输”，就是“怕输”的意思。 至于 Walao eh，应该是新加坡独有自创的口头禅，可以追溯自新加坡著名导演/编剧/演员 梁志强导演 Jack Neo 的作品，《小孩不笨》season 1。 我记得是那时是2002年，本来就是马来西亚人的我就从来没听过『Walao eh』，但是自从那部超卖作的电影《小孩不笨》后，我们这边槟城大街小巷有华人多的社区跟「walao eh」跑不了“关系”，用得“正规”也好、乱用也好，大家都很爱这个听起来就是超级搞笑煞气的口头禅，小学生到退休人士都在滥用 XD

There are many reasons; the first is their official language is English; the second is they use English a lot. Back to Singlish, my Singaporean colleagues like to say 'I think' in front of every sentence. And another interesting Singlish is they are used to saying 'also' at the end of each sentence. For example: you like running, I like running, also. hahaha...

Both mean the same in the Taiwanese dialect, but "bo lam pa" is super rude and we don't say it unless we're looking for a bar fight lol And "bo jio" really just means the same thing where we say it to our friends when they do things without inviting us. As someone who has never stepped foot on Singapore in my life, you can imagine how surprised I am to hear those very local words from them and with almost identical pronunciation, meaning and situations where you would say them...

    • Of course there is Malay , Singlish is not a language, technically it is a local slang, though we do call it a “language”, it is just Chinese, Malay, English and maybe a bit of Tamil mixed together to make communication easier. In the past , Singapore was just a port and everyone came from places all around the world to do business and trade, etc. however, during WW2, when the Japanese occupied Singapore, everyone lived in fear together in this small island, and after WW2, they creating a bond with this land and decided to make this place their forever home. At that time, the people here was still speaking in their own language but we needed a common language that we can all communicate with one another. Since Singapore was once colonized by the British, the common language was decided to be English and everyone was to learn it, Since the older generations wasn’t that good in English, they used to directly translate the sentence from their own languages to English and over time everyone know what the people from other languages is talking about and the way they talk became a habit even after they became good at speaking English, hence singlish was formed and has been passed down to the younger generation since. And, since English is our main communication channel, most of the words is still English but sometimes the structure for the sentence is a direct translation from one of the listed languages above as explained. For example, eh, Don’t play play with me, the right way to say in English is don’t you dare mess with me (it can be more like a threat depending on the situation and tone, but most of the time we say it for fun, in other words empty threats that we make to someone close to you). This sentence is directly translated from Chinese 不要和我玩玩好吗？ or something like that (As a Singaporean from the younger generation, I can proudly say my Chinese is terrible to the point that my ancestors would want to disown me if they could) Edit: We also add words from different languages, as I have already explained, the older generation had to learn a new language and when they couldn’t find the word they want to use in English, they just say the word in their own language to replace it while still speaking in English. Hence, Singlish is made up of different languages, and we do understand the words from the other languages to a certain extent, though, it will be quite challenging for a Singaporean to try to translate to foreigners what the word mean, because we just know it by heart. I mean we could do it if the word is from our mother tongue language, otherwise, it is quite challenging
