Double Singlish

So often we made a subconscious mistake by repeating a word that was never meant to be made.

A: Hey Wei Liang?

Wei Liang: Yes?

A: Can you return me my book?I need to read it.

Wei Liang: Huh?I have already return it to you already.Please check again.

Actually already is not supposed to put it at the end of the sentence.It's Singlish.But as we keep on repeating the same mistake,we'll get used to putting it at the back.Especially if you're those English-Singlish educated people,you'll put "already" in the middle of a sentence.That makes a double combo.

Think I've made quite alot of this mistake in my blog.Have to get get get get get over it.
