Colloquial version of the English language as spoken in Klang, Malaysia. The language shares substantial linguistic similarities with manglish.

Theoretically, lenglish as spoken in Klang is based on English. Native lenglish speakers often mumble. For example, the sentence 'what are you doing?' is pronounced 'whm amm mu doobin' in lenglish.

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. Recent studies prove statistically that it instead leads to getting probed in the seat with a toothpaste tube in prison by an equally adept expert in ganglish...

British slang for a scientist or technical expert, esp . when the speaker is not certain of the expert’s specific field of study. Not necessarily derogatory, but typically used by persons without a technical background. In the US, the equivalent would be “egghead”, “squint”, or “geek.”

Origin of the word is unknown. Started sometime in World War 2. Given the typical evolution of British slang, could easily have started because what these experts did was confusing or “baffling” to the common person.
According to the boffins downstairs, the murderer used a serrated blade.
