Crap Native speakers’ brains are already on the right path. We won’t mess it up in a conversation between native English speakers. When a native speaker hears, “What’s your name? Mine …” we already have “is” in our heads queued up. If we hear anything else, we will be surprised. A non-native speaker may not have this anticipation, and may hear “Minus” instead of “Mine is”. This exact problem happened this morning between my German roommate and me. Native speakers would almost never hear “minus” where the speaker said “mine is”, and likewise we will never confuse “crab” for “crap”.

LOLS http://slang.org/LOLS-meaning-definition in the wild: Part of the use of the slang term “in the wild,” which was popularized by the HBO TV series “Silicon Valley,” relies upon an analogy to the natural world. In nature, people look for wildlife and plants in the wild, where they are beyond any human monitoring or supervision.

[toggle title=”Wikipedia Singlish”] In general: The dental fricatives – /θ/ and /ð/ – merge with /t/ and /d/, so that three = tree and then = den.[18] In syllable-final position, -th is pronounced as -f /f/, so with and birth are pronounced weeff /wif/ and bəff /bəf/ respectively.[19] Under the influence of with, without is often pronounced with /v/ in place of /ð/: /wivaut/. The dental fricatives do occur in acrolectal speech, though even among educated speakers there is some variation.[20] The voiceless stops – /p/, /t/ and /k/ – are sometimes unaspirated,[18] especially among Malays.[21] (Aspiration refers to the strong puff of air that may accompany the release of these stop consonants.) The acoustic effect of this is that the Singlish pronunciation of pat, tin and come sound more similar to bat, din, and gum than in other varieties of English. The distinction between /l/ and /r/ is not stable at the basilectal level, as evinced by TV personality Phua Chu Kang’s oft-repeated refrain to “Use your blain!” (use your brain) and “‘Don pray pray!’” (Don’t play-play, i.e. Don’t fool around). One might note, however, that both these examples involve initial consonant clusters (/bl/ and /pl/ respectively), and conflation of /l/ and /r/ is found less often when they are not part of a cluster. /l/ at the end of a syllable, pronounced as a velarised “dark l” in British or American English, is often so velarised in Singlish that it approaches the Close-mid back unrounded vowel [ɤ], e.g. sale [seɤ]. /l/ also tends to be lost after the back vowels /ɔ/, /o/, /u/, and for some basilectal speakers, the central vowel /ə/. Hence pall = paw /pɔ/, roll = row /ro/,tool = two /tu/, and for some, pearl = per /pə/[22] Syllabic consonants never occur. Hence taken [tekən] and battle [bɛtəɤ], never [tekn̩] or [bɛtl̩]. When the final /l/ is vocalised, little and litter may be homophones.[23] [ʔ], the glottal stop, is inserted at the beginning of all words starting with a vowel, similar to German. As a result, final consonants do not experience liaison, i.e. run onto the next word. For example, “run out of eggs” would be “run-nout-to-veggs” in most dialects of English (e.g. [rʌ nau ɾə vɛɡz] in General American), but “run ‘out ‘of ‘eggs” (e.g. [rʌn ʔau ʔɔf ʔeks] in Singlish. This contributes to what some have described as the ‘staccato effect’ of Singapore English.[24] [ʔ] replaces final plosive consonants of syllables in regular- to fast-paced speed speech, especially stops: Goodwood Park becomes Gu’-wu’ Pa’ /ɡuʔ wuʔ pɑʔ/, and there may be a glottal stop at the end of words such as back and out. Like in Cambodian, where a final ‘g’ becomes a ‘k’; ‘bad’ becomes ‘bat’ with an unaspirated ‘t’.[25] In final position, the distinction between voiced and voiceless sounds – i.e. /s/ & /z/, /t/ & /d/, etc. – is usually not maintained, especially for fricatives. As a result, cease = seize/sis/ and race = raise /res/.[26] This leads to some mergers of noun/verb pairs, such as belief with believe /bilif/. Final consonant clusters simplify, especially in fast speech.[27] In general, plosives, especially /t/ and /d/, are lost if they come after another consonant: bent = Ben /bɛn/, tact =tack /tɛk/, nest = Ness /nɛs/. /s/ is also commonly lost at the end of a consonant cluster: relax = relac /rilɛk/. §Vowels Broadly speaking, there is a one-to-many mapping of Singlish vowel phonemes to British Received Pronunciation vowel phonemes, with a few exceptions (as discussed below, with regard to egg and peg). The following describes a typical system.[18][28][29] Some speakers may further merge /e/ and /ɛ/;[30] other speakers (especially better educated ones) make a distinction between /i/ and /ɪ/, /ɛ/ and /ɛə/, or /ɑ/ and /ʌ/. There is generally no distinction between the non-close front monophthongs, so pet and pat are pronounced the same/pɛt/.[31] At the acrolectal level, the merged vowel phonemes are distinguished to some extent, and for some speakers elements from American English are introduced, such as pre-consonantal [r] (pronouncing the “r” in bird, port, etc.).[32] This is caused by the popularity of American TV programming.[citation needed] Current estimates are that about 20 per cent of university undergraduates sometimes use this American-style pre-consonantal [r] when reading a passage.[33] – wikipedia Singlish [/toggle]
