Also known as "franglais" (frong-legh).

A term to describe a Bilingual Canadian who uses both English and French in the same sentence, usually due to poor knowledge of the second language, so they have to resort to their first-learned language to "fill in the holes". Americans use this as well, but for Spanish and English ("Spanglish").
Classic use of Fringlish:

"Sorry... nous speak anglais very pas bien!"

Flenglish 

The art of literally translating words or phrases from Flemish (Dutch from the Flemish region) to English.

These phrases obviously are horrendous translations that don't make any sense in English.

Flernglish 

Almost the same as English.

A language that mostly adds the letters "R" and "L" to many different English words and names, and alters them in some form.

Ususally used to replace curse words such as fuck, bitch, etc.

Can sometimes create completely different words altogether, which usually don't have any meaning.

Person B: Dude, chill with the flernglish...

Farnglish 

A cross between the language of Farsi and English. Usually used by Iranian immigrants who have been in an English speaking country for at least a couple of years. When spoken, the English portion of Farnglish has a lot more of a Persian accent to it than it normally would. Ex: Die-rhect TV vs. Durr-ect TV.
Yek farsheh expensive kharidam, now I have no moneey for shohpeeng. Mikhaiee fardah bereem khareed? --Farnglish

Finglish 

The use of both finnish and english at the same time. This usually involves mixing both languages in sentences, switching languages mid speech or just using completely mixed phrases:

Come on! Herää jo! (Come on! Wake up!)
Lähen driveaa koht workkii. (I'm gonna leave to work)
"I sometimes mix words from Finnish and English. Yeah, I really like to talk Finglish."
