Swinglish
True, the local asparagus are now on sale. But more fun today was to hear a bit about Swinglish on the radio.
Today's special theme on the national radio station SRF1 was Great Britain and what connects the two countries. One commentator also joking that both countries are islands. The one in the sea, the other in Europe.
Coming back to Swinglish: is how the (swiss-german) speaking people use English words in daily communication and how different the meaning can be:
- ever had a problem with your handy ?
- do you like to drive oldtimers ?
The solution and some more Swinglish favourites in this youtube clip.
