* Singlish is a largely spoken creole, and as such descriptivism (recording forms that reflect actual pronunciation in spoken language, or as appearing in the linguistic corpus) is more pertinent than strict prescriptivism. Nevertheless, the use of more standard forms (or for words originating in languages with Latin script, such as Malay, accurate to the original spelling) is recommended and encouraged.

Detailed etymology
definitions
noun
- a soup of mutton bone stewed in a rich, often bright red stew of tomatoes, chilli, garlic, ginger, mutton stock, and other ingredients and spices. It can be eaten with the hands, and a straw is sometimes used to slurp out the bone marrow, which is often considered the centrepiece of the dish itself. Some experienced diners may knock the marrow out without the aid of a straw.
It originated in Indian Muslim cuisine — specifically invented in the 1950s or 1960s by either Baharudeen or Abdul Kadir, hawkers who wanted to find a use for the leftover mutton bones they had after making dishes such as sup kambing, which often still had a good amount of meat left on them.[1][2]
