Dear Folks,
the week has been unfolding at light speed and for a moment at times, it feels like nothing makes sense. But luckily, I have this new mission to try and capture as many "singaporean slangs" as possible in this blog. This week's gems:-
simi wah gko : what's up now, what is the matter ?
dteo beh bpio : literally "strike horse lottery" , i.e strike the lottery
bhuay tahan : as Singaporeans will say " can't stand it no more la" , i.e you are already at your limit.
bhuay gahm wan : feel unjustified, sore about an injustice done to them.
orbbhid : pronounced as you would say "morbid", used to denote fashion tastes that is outdated/too outlandish for current trends / tastes.
manjah : Malay origins, attention seeking
Boh chjap : aloof , in state of apathy, couldn't care less.
ok that's all for today.. until more slangs come my way.. tata for now.
