Because of Malaysia's position between India and China it has been a multi cultural haven for centuries. Each visiting culture has left its mark on the Malaysia of today. The Portuguese occupied Melaka for almost 150 years and their descendants still attempt to keep the culture going today, including speaking a Portuguese dialect, the subject of this book. Through conversations in different settings, the authors introduce readers in an entertaining way to the vocabulary and grammar of one of the world's endangered languages. 97 pages with a glossary, references and an index.
