i love malaysian english so so so much its like 20 languages stacked in a trenchcoat but it's got specific rules and the syntax changes depending on who is speaking but it's all fully understandable if you're malaysian and entirely incomprehensible to anyone who isn't because you're speaking chinese languages, malay, english, and tamil at the same time but it's not Random like it's specific words from each language that are being used in combination with each other and depending on the ethnic background of the malaysian you're speaking with it shifts a bit to use more of their vernacular too and vice versa like it's a real Language that is fluid and amazing. which makes trying to communicate with people who only speak one of the above languages absolute hell and vice versa. a creole language that is meant to cause psychological damage to outsiders and immense joy to native speakers
