This is a hilarious video of a teenage missionary kid, Tyler Creasman, who grew up in China and Singapore. He speaks perfect Singlish. In college I hung out with lots of Sinaporean friends so I got to hear the accent a lot, but could never speak it myself. This kid is just like Elisabeth, Peter, Joanna and Jonathan who grew up in Japan and can speak Japanese and Japanglish.

BTW, the first two minutes of the video are the best. After that Tyler and the TV show host do a Singlish insult faceoff where the show host is a bit vulgar (I think … can’t understand all that Singlish).

If we moved to live in China our kids would definitely be able to speak standard English plus Chinese and Chinglish. Cool.
