Manglish Context
KISS theory. (Keep it simple stupid!)Go straight-to-point by using the
least words as possible.Add in as much foreign language
words as possible even if it doesn’t if it makes your sentence shorter.
Each sentence must end with either lo, lah, liao, d, ah, ma, meh or one.

Where got toilet ah? (Do you know where the wash room is?)
You sien d? (Are you feeling bored?)Die liao lah. (Oh my god, this doesn’t
sound good.)Okay lo. I do lo. (Alright then, I’ll do it.)
