Communication here can be a challenge. There is such an eclectic mix of nationalities, speaking so many different native languages, all trying to communicate with each other. The largest groups of non-English-first-language speaking nationals are from India, Pakistan and The Philippines. In their striving to communicate, a number of phrases seem to have become like an accepted pigeon-English.
There are plenty of other sites that have outlined these like a UAE-English-English-UAE phrase book, so I won't repeat fully here, but a few examples are:-
Maamsirrrr : Sir/Madam
Same same : the same
Not in station : on leave
Do the needful : do what is neccesary
Please revert : get back to me
Anyway, today I saw an email that came into our office from a staff member from one of our suppliers. He is leaving his company, for what reason I don't know - it can't be his fantastic communication skills! It is written in classic "Indglish". It's brilliant and I wanted to share it .....

Dear All,
As a change in my professional environment , I am relieving from my job, by today.
Many thanks for all who has helped me to build up a career in the professional environment with lots of experiences.
As a part of my career if I has hurt anybody, it was with a good intention only & I never feel sorry for the same.
Whoever I found something bad I used to criticize as I believe that a dearest friend should be the biggest criticizer, without checking the designations, as basically all are humans only.
And if anybody felt if I had cruised them badly, please provide the proper reason & I will be on their feet.
Any way we will meet somewhere around, those who have seen me. Or didn’t have till.
Hope some will remember me as a good friend or you will do as a enemy also. Anyway thanks for the remembrance. I deserved that only.
Any body wishes to contact me can mail to xxxxxx@gmail.com , from here onwards, because I don’t have access to the official ID herein.
Thanks & Regards
