Get the Danglish mug.In the German language itself, the word for "German" is not "German" but "Deutsch." So, "Do you speak German?" is asked, "Sprechen Sie Deutsch?" Therefore, Denglish is most likely a German-born influence upon the English language.
It comes from the "De" in "Deutsch" and the "nglish" in "English" being combined. It doesn't matter whether the native speaker is German or English. "Denglish" is used as a name for a language, so it should be capitalized.
Denglish is typically experienced as German words sprinkled into English text, like spice in stew, to make it exciting. In the USA one might say of an adopted German word, it has been Americanized. In German texts one may find an English word "Eingedeutscht". There is such a market for Denglish, one can even find a comedienne with a "Denglish" stage act.

"Omigod," she says to the überagent."
"Death by Hollywood" by Steven Bochco, page 39 ("über" here means "over", as in "over agent", therefore, "top agent").
"Ich möchte Cornflakes zum Frühstück." My two-year old son declaring in German that he wishes to have cornflakes for breakfast.
In both examples, the person could be said to be speaking Denglish.

Get the Donglish mug.A pseudo language created by german people who think they are cool and modern, they form english-looking words. This is often used in marketing. Germans can guess what it means, also it seems more new and innovative than real english/german words.
"DEnglish" is the combination of "d(eutsch) english". The term is mostly used by germans who are critical about the newly invented words.

Get the Peter Dalglish mug.When a particular situation becomes common to a friend or colleague and is associated with their already existing nickname.
Typically a Danglism involves the addition of an single adjective or adverb to the person's nickname.
Note that, once a Danglism has been established, the Danglism itself refers to the act or actions and is not necessarily associated with the person who the term was originally coined after.

Some Examples:

(Specific examples to demonstrate usage)
"Suprised Wedge"
"I heard that Leezy walked in on Wedge while he was getting a b'jowski from his lady last night. Now every time Leezy stays over drinking, I always worry about being the victim of "Suprised Wedge" myself."
"Screamin Dangle"
"I heard Dangle taking the nastiest dump in the shitter at Long Key State Park while I was showering. When I went outside, I saw he had wrecked his scooter into the staircase trying to get to the bathroom in time. I knew it was Dangle, because he was walking the busted scooter back down the road 30 minutes later with a big smile on his face."
"Heaving Hulk"
"My buddy Hulk was in the head during the whole fishing trip spewing his brains out. When he wasn't there, he was throwing up in his mouth and swallowing it. I hope I don't pull a Heaving Hulk next time I go out to sea"
"Lonely Mart"
"Old Mart's girlfriend is out of town tonight. I'll bet he's just going to go back to his apartment, sit on his couch under his mounted deer "Bucky", and choke himself with his belt while he cranks out a batch of shame gravy.
