preahko Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 Okay' date=' here's my "Bad English" vent: don't speak pidgin English to Thais! You're only reinforcing their bad grammar. I can't tell you how grating it is when I hear some farang say to a Thai "where you stay now? I go Sukhumvit"... etc. And I hear it every single day here. preahko[/quote'] How about farang who speak pidgin English to each other? Ever run into them? That is totally bizarre. yes! I have, actually. possibly more than once but one joker really sticks in my mind, I run into him all the time at various Nana bars and up and down sukhumvit...nice enough guy but he *always* speaks in that "I go my house" and "what you do" baby grammar...drives me nuts! preahko Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted November 14, 2006 Report Share Posted November 14, 2006 I've seen a few like they. They babble on to everyone in BG English, probably without even realising it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
