Hinglish - a random mix of English and Hindi words - and Chinglish - a fusion of Chinese and English - should be made part of the British curriculum, suggests a British think tank.
The suggestion has come from Demos, one of Britain's influential leftwing think tanks that said Britain was in danger of being marginalized due to an "outdated" attitude to the language.

"It is important there is a standard set of English we all understand, whatever children might use in the playground or new words appear on the Internet," The Queen's English Society said.
"Schools are already having difficulty teaching standard English because of a growing international influence, and they don't need to be further sidetracked," the society added.
