<h1>English dialect of the Casakhstan</h1>
|
||||
<p>The Commonhealth of Casakhstan speaks its own dialect of English, mostly inspired by the dialect of the Internet (<code>en-WWW</code>) but which has evolved to include Casakhstan-specific words or grammatical rules. This page documents some of the Casakhstan-specific changes that have been found to be in <b>common use</b>.</p>
|
||||
<p>Trying to force a grammar or a vocabulary onto a population just for the sake of pleasing linguists is not acceptable. This document may not be used for such purposes.</p>
