I had married a woman whose family did not speak English and I did not speak Mandarin. We all lived together. My daughter spoke Chinglish going back and forth in the same sentences. It was amazing. I wish I had recorded it.

chop chop doesnt come from 快快, it comes from 速速 which in cantonese is chok chok. Other than that, i find this video very informative, thanks!

There is a Cantonese song from Sam Hui which has the line No Money No Talk. I didn’t realise this was pidgin English.

Very interesting, although I think it would have been more appropriate to use Traditional Chinese Characters instead of Simplified for the examples. Also, Mandarin was rarely the language of contact between the English-speaking merchants in China. The source of the Chinese phrases that entered the English language were mostly Cantonese, Hokkien and Shanghainese and others.

Hi Charles, thanks for the comment. Your right the languages or dialectics from the old trading days would more than likely be local to that particular area like Cantonese and Shanghainese.
