     Have you ever heard “Singlish”? Singlish is English, spoken in Singapore. It has a strong accent of their languages. Singapore is a multiethnic county and people used to speak Chinese, Malay and English as their common language. The government of Singapore decided that English is their common language and tried making people speak English.
