A language in its own right, ginglish is a fluid and dynamic attempt to communicate in German without a substantive competance in the language, leading to a sort of 'cross-pollenation' of the two which neither side fully understands.

Wir haben yesterday at Gary's house gehen und wir machen poker.
Warum hast du my ticket nicht gegotten?
Ich bin ein pig mit wings und ich liebe computer games spielen.

Ganglish 

The clever language invention that attempts to hide one's literacy and formal education by deceiving the reader into thinking you are 4 years old and mentally retarded. Prolonged exposure to ganglish has been shown to lead one to believe that shooting someone in the face is an admirable goal and will lead to a rich productive life filled with societal respect, endless money, sex and getting high in a large mansion until the end of days.

A slang term for GLP-1 medications(like Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, etc.), usually referring to their appetite-killing, weight-loss, or “I forgot to eat” effects rather than the medical details.

Usage:
* Often casual, ironic, or meme-y
* Can imply effortless weight loss, suppressed hunger, or being “powered by pharmaceuticals”

Notes:
Not a brand name—just shorthand for the whole GLP-1 wave. Frequently shows up in online jokes, gym talk, and group chats where people pretend they’re *totally* doing it naturally.
“I’m not dieting, I’m just on that glippy.”
“Ever since the glippy hit, food feels optional.”
“That summer body? Yeah, glippy assisted.”
