Broken English
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Broken English often refers to a poorly spoken or written version of the English language, perhaps a pidgin. Under the strictest definition of the term, broken English consists of English vocabulary grafted onto the syntax, including word order, other aspects of sentence structure, and presence or absence of articles, of a speaker's native non-English language, typically along with the stripping of linguistic markings not shared by English and the speaker's native language.
