Aiyah... is more like a form of exasperation Razz aur Rahul-ji, mai hindi thora thora janti hu , care to teach? Laughing

as for why CB is vulgar... I can PM you that.

ang mo = red-haired (loosely translated from hokkien)

The first foreigners than landed in Singapore are mainly red-haired, thus named "ang-moh"

So easy right? one - two months here, tell u ah, u sure expert one! Don't always mix with ur own ang-moh crowd lah! Hang out with us the locals more, drink beer at kopi-shop, cheaper some more! occasion

CB is equiv of the C word in English... So from now on I must be dubbed Cheeky, beek, or cheekybeek.

ok can can. Punt 3 meanings- one of those little boats (sort of like a bum boat). One of those short kicks in football (right?), to gamble.

Please no "ji"! Just call me Rahul. Very Happy And plus, when you say "Janti", it means your talking to a female, and I'm male - so you should say,Jante ho na?

C word in English?? C*** ? Cooc***?? So many of them ...

Hindi seekhni hai to boliye, zaroor sikhane ki koshish karoonga ... Very Happy - aap kahan se aaye hain Question
