  • Pidgin statements

    What are some pidgin statements that local people will understand, but other people might question? (basically, what are some pidgin statements that has meaning to us?)

    I got this:
    -Eh, where you stay? You stay lost?

    Add more!
    How'd I get so white and nerdy?
