Malaysianspeak- Lah

Image
Definition: A Manglish particle used primarily at the end of sentences to affirm a point or statement. Also to add weight to a sentence not unlike an exclamation mark. Malaysian Usage: i) Ya lah ii) No lah iii) Economy bad lah iv) Petrol price down lah v) Go mamak lah vi) Virtually with anything Example: a) He's getting married lah. No more crazy nights out already. It's parenthood and Pampers for him now lah! b) Yeah lah, she's like that one. You can't save a damsel who likes her distress lah. c) Your fault lah! Who asked you to come late? Conclusion Lah is ubiquitously used in the Malaysian lexicon. Much like other Malaysian phrases or colloquialisms, its usage can be varied to signify diverse emotions, connotations or expressions. If you are unfamiliar with the use of Lah, observe how real Malaysians incorporate it into daily conversations before attempting it. Otherwise you run the risk of sounding obnoxious. Or French. Same thing really.

5 things Aattam 100 Vagai should realize Written by Kalai on Monday, February 16th 2009

This issue is solely based on my opinions and how I feel about it. So the motive is to share some tips that Aattam 100 vagai team should take into count. Every piece of opinion should be at least taken into count, if they were to do a postmortem or so. That’s my job here on this blog. To share some ideas right? Yet, lets move on why aattam 100 vagai is a disgrace to the Indian community if it is to continue as it is today. 1. Why is the show portraying Indians in a very dodgy manner ? What’s with the slangs and reggae culture? Can’t that be prevented. Modernization is what we need, but what’s portrayed here are not what modernization actually suppose to be. It feels rather dodgy.

Can’t the team arrange some sort of guidelines to show some sort of classiness? What’s with the striking colours. Do you provide such colour codes? Simple, have a

Religion + Politics = Havoc

Religion and politics can’t mix. It’s a bad combination, a recipe for disaster. Why you may ask ? Well, all this is purely just my opinion. So if you disagree, just ignore me. When I say religion, I mean all religions...Islam, Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, Taoism, Sikhism, Judaism, Jainism, Confucianism, Bahai, & all the other religions. When I say politics, I don’t mean only Malaysian politics, I mean politics of all countries worldwide. Firstly, I say religion is personal, politics is not. Your faith & beliefs is a matter that lies solely between you and God…nobody else. Politics is everybody’s business in one way or the other. Religions preach of what’s right & wrong, whereas some politicians don’t practice what they preach at all. Religions can create extremists & fanatics. Politics can too. However, both have different purposes & ideologies. Put two & two together,.…boom!! All/some religions have a holy book. The teachings of a religion & Holy Scri
