Review on The Effect of Malaysian Culture in English

In this week we were asked to do a presentation based on the topic given to us. For our group we were given a topic about Multicultural effect on English language in Malaysia.

At first our group did not very understand about the topic but thank to our lecturer for the guidance and tips on what can we talk about the topic that was given to us? According our lecturer, we can talk about mistake made by Malaysian when they speak English, code-switching and code-mixing phenomena.

Apart from that, based on the discussion with madam ira, we decided to discuss about the history of English language in Malaysia since colonial time, mistakes done by Malaysian when speak English and English phenomena in Malaysia.

In order to support our main ideas in the discussion, our group tries so hard to find other supporting material like quotation from linguists and book or others.

During the presentation phased, i put together all the strength in me to be confident to speak English in front of the class and most important to speak in front of madam ira our English lecturer is not an easy task because every sentence and ideas spoken will be evaluated by her.
