sometimes i think of zhongli's eloquent way of speaking and how ????? he'd get if i ever speak to him in singlish. it would be. so funny.
"dearest, could i trouble you to put the laundry into the washing machine later?"
"can."
"...... apologies, but i must ask you to clarify; that's a yes, correct...?"
"is the tea to your liking, my love? it's been quite warm these days, so i figured some iced tea would be helpful to combat the heat."
"so shiok, thank you!!!"
"..... though the meaning of your words escape me, from your expression, i deduce you find it pleasant. in which case, i am glad."
"*throws a pack of tissue onto a restaurant table* there, i chope us a seat already. come, let's order something."
"darling..........."
"what drink should i order for you, beloved?"
"hmmm... kopi c siew dai peng."
".... i'm afraid i only understood a portion of those words."
#rin selfships#zhongrin#he'd probably??? understand some of the cn dialects#but definitely not the malay words lmao#meanwhile al haitham wriothesley and neuvillette: 'meirin. are you getting a stroke' /silly#no but fr as someone who was so shocked at encountering singlish in my teen years. i adore how compact and expressive the language is#also the fact that it mixes up cultures and languages are so interesting to me hahahah#only thing i wish would change is the looks (and sometimes attitude) i get when i say i can't speak chinese ☠️
