Spenglish - Special English, spoken or written by those who cannot, or will not, speak English properly.
The unhappy result of some damn fool raping the English language, you
don't need to be foreign to do it, as many of my own countrymen (and ladies) mangle our language too (whether they are
drunk or merely illiterate remains to be seen).
Spenglish is not to be confused with simple bad grammar, this is gobbledegook taken to a whole new level of "what the
fuck did I just read/hear?"
A verbatim sample of Spenglish from an anonymous review of a video game on Amazon UK:
"main soon bay this
game is soo expenciwe 59 pound .sory i play in ps3 and i not bay this
game yet beckouse is to expencive .i not shure whay

Drunk? Foreign? Thick as shit?
Me: "Goddamn it Arthur, is it not
time you put down that stained and sticky wank mag and learned to speak the Queen's English man? You are forty-five not fourteen!"
Arthur: "Wgdblfbh hrfhpsj rhpflj rsjfpj soierhosf ozijdohsp!"
Me: "Here's a scrabble
set - eat the tiles,
go for a shit and I'll read the results because it
will make more sense than the Spenglish that just dribbled out of your mouth like verbal diarrhoea, you complete and utter imbecile."
