OK - another attempt!!
Another attempt at putting a list of Singlish words and terminologies that are uniquely in use on this forum.
Hopefully this list will be of some use to others like I who are totally unfamiliar with Singlish, and worse, some of the abbreviations being used to signify a particular Singlish phrase!
With thanks to Bro 3Dee who had previously helped me out with some translations, I would like to again ask for you guys' assistance to "fill in the blanks" of some more words(in bold) I don't know how to translate. Thank you beforehand!!
