Today’s lesson, bengs and lians, is the word “merlion”.
As those of you who live in or have visited Singapore may know, the Merlion is the symbol of Singapore.
In Singlish, to “merlion” is to projectile vomit, viz what the Merlion statue is doing in the above picture.
I shall begin using “merlion” immediately.
Good show!
I like it, too 🙂
