@danthebilly • Singaporeans pronounce flour as /flɑ:/ instead of /flaʊ-ə/. The dictionary says that both American and British pronunciation is /flaʊ-ə/.
Singaporean teachers pronounce and teach their pupils to pronounce flour as / flɑ:/. And at an oral examination, if this word appears in the reading passage, the pupils who pronounce it correctly are penalised.
I'd like native speakers from England, US, Canada, Australia and New Zealand to reply to prove me right.

actually singlish is a language form by using parts of chinese / dialect simple grammar and vocabulary from chinese/dialect, malay, to describe scenario which english yet to have a vocab to express easily.
for example, kiasu (驚輸): made of two expression "scare " and “lose".this word in singlish express: afraid to lose out.

I am Taiwanese, but I love Singlish. I really enjoy listening English songs sung by Singaporean singers(like Stefanie Sun). I think most Taiwanese can appreciate the cultural differences between Taiwan and Singapore. I love Singapore, and I think your accent is charming and beautiful. So, please don't generalize all of us from personal remarks delivered by some people on TV. Their opinion cannot represents the truth.
