when ang mo use "lah" in their sentence

skythewood SG

it sounds so fake. it's like they still have their US accent, and they forcefully add a lah to the end of their sentence to sound more localised. and he succeed in irritating me.

will try to imitate the PRC accent when talking to PRC in the hope that this will irritate them too.

FireIce SG

he knew his singlish, so he definitely understood what he said

Lorry` SG

but 'first class cheebye'......... erm.............

skythewood SG

maybe he was thinking about the translation for bad ass or nigger.giving themselves degrading name is the in thing in the states.

Pitot SG

they use it wrongly by placing emphasis on the LAH.

i taught my ex collicks how to say it with a more subtle tone and when they all tired it for themselves, they all said they finally got it. hahaha
