This night I just come back from outside meeting friends, sitting on my chair and checking through all my emails. One particular email caught my eyes, I cant remember what its title is, but it is interesting that how "creative" this person write this. For sure it's either by a Malaysian or Singaporian. Damn Chiat Lat!!! Here is how the article looks:
"You might like it. This is hilarious... ..even an Englishman could not construct sentences using numeric, which is exclusive only to Malaysians and Singaporeans.
Ah Lek was asked to make a sentence using 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10. Not only did he do it 1 to 10, he did it again from 10 back to 1. This is what he came up with.....
'1 day I go 2 climb a 3 outside a house to peep. But the couple saw me, so I panic and 4 down. The man rushed out and wanted to 5 with me.. I ran until I fell 6 and threw up. So I go into 7 -eleven and grabbed some 8 to throw at him. Then I took a 9 and try to stab at him. 10 God he run away. 10 I put the 9 back and pay for the 8 and left 7 -eleven. Next day I called my boss and told him I was 6 . He said 5 , tomorrow also no need to come back 4 work. He also asked me to go climb a 3 and jump down. I don't understand. I am so nice 2 him but I don't know what he 1.' "
That's how the SMS culture influences into English language in Malaysia or Singapore. To be honest, I used too much "numeric" abbreviation till I could not write properly in English, without the help of the Auto Spelling in MS Office. Oh dear... Better brush my English or else more people critic my English...
