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 game for xbox is very expencive???????? a

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."
