Perglish is a social dialect joining the words English and Persian, to describe the new way that many Persian-Canadians are speaking their native language with many English substitute words. Following the Islamic revolution, a wave of Persians emigrated from Iran to English speaking countries such as England, U.S.A and Canada. Perglish, a modern dialect of Farsi (the Persian language), and English has been generated as not all members of the first and second generation immigrant community are able to converse fluently in either English or Farsi, or because one language may have a much simpler word to describe something.
Perglish: Bereem Hangout koneem.
(Let's go hangout)

Let's go to the ketabkhooneh.
(Let's go to the library)

Penglish is a gramatical modification to the language "English". Some examples of these changes are; Penglish: dinner in 2. English: The dinner will be in 2 hours/at 2pm. And; Penglish: How old do you have? English: How old are you? There is no time indication as the speakers don't need it.

What is the purpose of this you might ask? Penglish dates back to 2018 when the founder, Zak Ahmed, started using/teaching penglish to his Youtube audience, while hosting $1000 gaming challenges. And is commonly used in and around communities related to him.

Penglish speakers were once english speakers, that switched over due to the easiness of the language. Penglish speakers find it easy to read English, but find speaking it difficult.
Oh yeah I speak Penglish, event in 8.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:
Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
