Wayarles

I saw in a TM Net advertisement bunting in a shop 1U.
"Percuma - modem wayarles"..

I can only gasp and shake my head at the utterly shocking term used. I hope it is created by the shop and not by TM Net because if it is, it's really embarassing. You can just take a English term and tried to Malaysianized it. Or can you? These days we see words like telekomunikasi, harmoni, wayarles.

LOL

    Seriously, if Bahasa Malaysia does not have a strong vocabulary, why not just use English? Why are we in denial?
