Catchy video shows what 'Japanglish' sounds like

Ever heard of Japanglish?

This unique form of language is neither here nor there but is mostly used by foreigners obsessed with Japanese culture.

Most are unable to speak fluent Japanese but instead adopt a speaking pattern to make it sound like they are knowledgeable about the language.

Malaysian hip-hop artist Namewee produced a music video poking fun at this trend.

Looking for a Starbucks? Say: Sutabkkusu.

Toilet? It's toilettu in Japanglish.

Although in no way is the video meant to be taken seriously, the song is incredibly catchy.

Check it out below.
