Chinglish

When I first started working here in Canada I had a problem understanding people in meetings, not because I can’t speak English, but because they can’t. My goodness, I am working with the Chen dynasty here. I can barely understand them because they all speak Chinglish (a dialect of Chinese he he he ) , [...]
