It's a very strange coincidence but here in Italy, I did almost the same. Maybe because moved by the urge of a practical and quik language that would express my thoughts through the cell phone in the shortes period of time, I began to mix English and Italian words in a new way. I started doing it so often that now some words immediatly come out as if they always existed. If more words or some expression will develope What name can I give this new upgrowing language? Will the name Englit be ok?
