Korang mesti ada kawan-kawan yang asalnya dari negeri Kelantan kan. Dorang ni tak biasa berbahasa Inggeris, jadi bila cakap bahasa Inggeris atau ‘kecek luar’ katanya, ada slang-slang kelate gitu… hehe
Akak teringat masa kat uni, ada la beberapa course mate akak yang asal dari Kelantan. Kadang tu nak buat kita paham ape maksud die, memang payah. Cakap melayu pun payah nak paham, kalau English lagi la kan. Bila lama-lama bersama ngan dorang ni, baru la akak boleh faham kepayahan mereka berbahasa di negeri orang. Walaubagaimanapun, bila akak lama-lama bersama dengan mereka, boleh la pick up sikit apa yang sebenarnya mereka nak sampaikan.
