Britain is twitching badly as he overheard a conversation by two sisters, Singapore and Malaysia.
"America sibeh[1] ang moh lang ah," Singapore said towards Malaysia.
"He's ang moh lang[2] in the first place what," Malaysia replied.
"Ya lah, I know. But then he didn't inherit anything from his mother leh[3]." Singapore said.
"Talking about someone in front of me," Malaysia smirked.
"I still preserve my Malay roots what." Singapore sighed.
"Then what about the big numbers of Chinese and some little Indians?" Malaysia said.
"What about your Chinese and Indian minorities." Singapore laughed.
Malaysia waved her hand signalling to Singapore to stop talking about this issue.
"Anyway, you finished your homework already anot[4]?" Singapore asked.
"Finished already. Why? Want to copy ah?" Malaysia asked playfully.
"No lah, just worry about you a bit," Singapore said.
"Don't need your concern. Anyway, how's your head." Malaysia laughed.
Singapore was assaulted by Malaysia a few days ago which causes her to lie on the bed for a few days. (See the previous chapter.)
"Thanks for your concerns," Malaysia said sarcastically.
"Anyway, your massage is very jialat[5] as usual." Singapore sighed.
"My back almost goes to X-ray after the massage," Singapore said. Singapore suffer backache yesterday which Malaysia helped out by massaging Singapore back only for Singapore to kick Malaysia out of her house after a few touches.
"Don't complain when you need help," Malaysia said.
"Anyway, I can never get your queuing culture! Why long line and your people want to queue! [6]" Malaysia said.
"And I can never get your queue so long that they don't care culture. People queuing means the things must be good lah!" Singapore said.
"Ha." Malaysia laughed sarcastically.
"This is call efficient," Malaysia said.
"You know how much time has lost when you queue so long for something when you can just buy online," Malaysia smirked.
"I wonder your Kampung can get signals anot[7]." Singapore laughed.
"Say sorry!" Malaysia exclaimed feeling seriously offended by Singapore comments.
"Sorry." Singapore apologized indifferently.
"Here." Malaysia snapped, passing some chewing gums to Singapore.
"Thanks ah," Singapore said chewing the chewing gums.
"You're too enthusiastic about chewing gum for someone who banned chewing gum," Malaysia said sarcastically.
"This is my house meh? [8]" Singapore said as though it was a natural thing to do.
"What are they talking about?" America asked Britain. Both America and Britain is sitting on the same table and like Britain, America has overheard the conversation. But sadly, America does not understand even a single thing about the two girls' conversation.
"Something you should never learn about," Britain said, suddenly feeling grateful that the US English is not as mess up as Singlish and Manglish.
AUTHOR NOTE:
[1]-Sibeh: originate from Hokkien, this word belongs to Singdarin (Singaporean Mandarin), not Singlish. This word usually means very in Singapore.
[2]-Ang Moh Lang: Ang Moh has appeared on previous chapters before and it means the Whites in both Singapore and Malaysia. Ang Moh lang also means whites people and this phrase originate from Hokkien. This phrase is also used in Taiwan and Thailand as well, but more commonly is Malaysia and Singapore.
[3]-I go with the fandom and historical contexts by saying USA mother is Native America. I don't know which empire or culture does she represent. I don't mean it as a racist comment, but most media often neglect the Native Americans in USA. Especially Hetalia official works! It literally is like USA is an all white's country!
[4]-anot: is a shorten word from two words which is 'or not'.
[5]-Jialat: Very bad, originate from Hokkien
[6]-queuing culture in Singapore is sort of unique, I guess? Anyway, one of the Singaporean stereotypes is that people like to queue even if they don't know what they are queuing for. This is because they believe that since there are so many people queuing, it means the things they are queuing for must be good. Or, another scenario is that people would queue for freebies. (The latter part is definite!)
Whereas for the Malaysian stereotypes is that when people finds the queue is too long, people would not bother to queue for it.
[7]-Kampung: it is Malay traditional village. Usually means village in the Malay sphere.
[8]-Chewing gum is definitely banned in Singapore. I checked a lot of sources and even read up on Singapore law which states that chewing gum is banned in Singapore unless it was bought for medical usage. But there are a lot of people who say that chewing gum is just banned to be sold in Singapore besides for medical use and consuming for personal use is allowed in Singapore. Anyway, I've seen people consuming chewing gums that are bought from Johor Bahru, the closest place to Singapore in Malaysia where chewing gum is allowed to be sold.
I KNOW THERE IS A LOT OF CONFUSING GRAMMAR IN HERE, SO ASK ME IF YOU NEED CLARIFICATION!
