Its all about the usage of words, sentence structure and the pronunciation

It is easy to see the difference if you have two kids.

Put one in an Australian/American/British school and another in a sgrean school and you can see the difference

Most Sgreans are never taught the proper or correct standard (Aus/Brit/US), tend to over do it and thus sound weird.......



The same way how Taiwanese/Fujianese (Xiamen) people view Sgreans' Hokkien especially the younger generation

broken hokkien, low vocab, poor pronunciation, one word can represent 10 things/meaning, and etc.....very very simplified

i mixed with local bro just that i dont want sound funny if i talk aussie accent i dont want to sound fake as long as they understand what i saying that more important :smile:


As long as they can understand you that should be fine....

Its easier to adapt and learn when one is younger

For example a 10yo kid vs a 22, 32 or 42 yo adult
