Engrish Help
I am writing two Jap female characters and I want to understand how to get that broken Engrish into their dialogues. I'm trying to use that as a humour element or even just a character trait.
But I can't seem to get that speech at all! Can someone help me with this? Like some basic engrish grammar rules I should follow... e.g.: "I didn't do this." -- "I no did thees!"
So how do the Japanese speak English?!
Thanks 
I swear I posted that already. About the L's and R's. But it's vanished!!
Leave out certain words, switch words that could easily be confused because they sound or alike.
another trick would be to type all your stuff into babelfish and translate it in japanese. The take that and translate it back into english. it always comes out all screwy.
Better and quicker method than my suggestion.
Like this:
"Hey, we were thinking about going to the grocery store in a few hours, want to come and help out?"
Can be turned into:
"Hi, we think going to the food goods store in a small time, would you like to help?"
Or,
"The traffic is gridlock, and the store is closed"
Could be turned into:
Traffic is reaching limits, the store is closed
Edit:
Haha, I pulled something out of a blog post I found, look what happened:
"Remember the first time? Fight Club? God, that was amazing. Back then, that whole repetitive, minimalist thing you do seemed so bold, so dangerous. So hot. And I seriously, no kidding, learned so much about men from that book."
It got turned into:
"First remember? Club fight? God that was splendid. That at that time, the all repetition, the smallest principle it seemed that is very bold, it is dangerous so. It is hot so. Being learned so and seriously I, concerning the person from thing and that book which tease."
LOL
Or just read Pygmy 5 times in a row, and then write all of their dialogue.
Pygmy is Chinese heh.
Monkey, I doubt if Ironman can manage that 
Nate, I thought of that translator trick but it just sounds like crappy shuffle of words than actual meaningful speech rhythms -- it does sound funny nevertheless (mainly individually by themselves) but would be pointless for the story.
Phir and Singer Sorbeeng Jacq: Ls and Rs, and the word-skipping and replacement sounds like a good idea. Plus, I just found this in an ancient email forward! But it is TOO extreme, so I should try and aim at something exactly between this and my normal Indian English

Thanks guys, crossing my fingers and hoping to type something that makes sense.
LOL. Singer Sorbeeng Jacq? I got quite a laugh out of that one! Thanks.
Anyways, the broken english is sounding pretty good.
Yay for innocent racism!
Just don't put any L's in there, make them all R's, and make them talk about sushi a lot. That'll win your readers over!
thanks for sharing.blackhawk tactical pants.
