Now back after 20 years with brand new words, expressions and idioms, this hilarious classic remains packed with humour, irreverence and loads of fun. It bids all Malaysians to lighten up, laugh at ourselves and revel in our unique, multicultural way of life. Forget about tenses, grammar, pronunciation, and just relek lah … Aiyoh. Manglish or Malaysian English is what Malaysians speak when we want to connect with each other or just hang loose. Borrowing from Malay, Chinese, Indian, Asli, British English, American English, dialects, popular mass media and plenty more, our unique English reflects our amazing diversity. Like a frothy teh tarik or a lip-smacking mouthful of divine durian, Manglish is uniquely Malaysian. Manglish is an entertaining, funny and witty compilation of commonly used Malaysian English words and expressions. Whether Malaysian, expat, visitor or a fresh-off-the-plane Mat Salleh, you’ll never be at a loss for words when conversing with Malaysians.

Malaysian English (MalE), with its unique blend of linguistic and cultural influences, embodies the captivating melody that resonates across Malaysia’s diverse multilingual tapestry. MalE comprises all the sub-varieties that are used by Malaysians in many different contexts. The spoken colloquial variety of MalE has unique linguistic features and is often interspersed with words and expressions from Malay and other local languages, and these features have attracted many researchers to study MalE. In short, we believe that this book will be a valuable resource for anyone eager to explore the exciting realm of Malaysian English pronunciation and for those who are seeking to enhance their understanding of contemporary MalE pronunciation in the context of World Englishes or varieties of English.

Voices in Texts and Contexts presents different perspectives of “voice”, a concept that emerges from language choices, social and cultural phenomena, and psychology. In weaving a tapestry of linguistic experiences, from analyses of language phenomena including localised English to explanations of human behaviour, this book offers insights into how we use language, construct discourse, and express ourselves in light of selected texts and specific contexts.
