Welcome to the discussion board of A Dictionary of Singlish and Singapore English!
This is an experiment to see if users of the Dictionary and others would find it useful to have a forum to discuss aspects of Singlish -- the words and expressions that are used, their meaning and etymology, and so on -- and English usage in Singapore in general.
You will also find occasional articles and discussions about the 'information society' that we live in.
Announcements about seminars, talks and other events relating to the above-mentioned topics are most welcome.
