Most of our students fail to articulate their words clearly and distinctly according to the rules governing the English language. Our Govt attributed declining standards of English competency to the widespread use of Singlish. This led to the launch of the Speak Good English Movement in April 2000 that championed the use of Standard English over its English-based patois. It doesn't seem to have worked out as planned 24 years after the launch of that campaign.

Proponents of Singlish view it as unique to S'pore and an expression of our multicultural identity. However, the reality is that most S'poreans are unable to code switch effortlessly between Singlish and grammatically correct English.

If Singlish continues to be thoughtlessly acquired, it will be saved in the long term memory of our students as an acceptable form of English. Our ability to speak Standard English suffers when we spend too much time interacting with others who speak a sub-standard form of the language, since we naturally tend to adopt the speech that is heard most of the time around us.

Even though English is considered a global language, most S'poreans appear to have command of less than 35% of the words in the lexicon. Adding Singlish into the mix serves only to confuse and hinder the learning of Standard English.

If we practice the use of grammatically correct English in every situation, then our standard and command of the language will naturally improve over time.
