Linguists say Panglish will lose some of the English sounds which non-native speakers find difficult to pronounce. For instance, the "th" sounds in "this" and "thin" might be replaced by "z" or "s", respectively. The short "l" sound in "hotel" might be replaced with the longer "l" of "lady".[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ i'^"Rwgk'UfF'UFroG]
Consonants at the end of words may be dropped. So "friend" may be pronounced as "frien" and "send" as "sen". Group nouns like "information" and "furniture" – which don't have plural versions – could vanish. Therefore, it may become acceptable in Panglish to talk about "informations" and "furnitures".[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ W} =5:}s0St?oj%em5FroG]
Non-English speakers often forget the "s" at the end of third person singular verbs like "he runs" or "she walks". In Panglish, people may say "he talk" or "she eat".[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ :�)EJmA1cy?kjzZFroG]
"By 2010, around 2 billion people, or a third of the world's population, will speak English as a second language. In contrast, just 350 million people will speak it as a first language. By 2020, the number of native speakers will be down to 300 million," the Daily Mail newspaper predicts.[文章版权 禁止转载:考试与评价 http://www.trgroup.com.cn/te/ i#Sf ='}m[/Q)&w!dFroG]
