"A" is for Amok!
It is true that our national language has borrowed whole chunks of words and phrases from many different tongues around the world. English, Portuguese and Chinese to name a few.
But I’ve recently discovered from my assignment-procrastinating voyages inside the huge archives of Wikipedia that there is in fact one original word our humble country has contributed to the English language!
The word: AMOK!
No, not the heavy-metal band.
Here, check it out!
Well, yeah I’ll admit it’s a little unflattering on the reason WHY the word came about in the first place. But common! It’s still a Malaysian original word, right?
