indish

The English language used in India with all its usages, words, phrases, and idioms, that are influenced by the various languages of India ( Tamil, Hindi, Malayalam, Telugu, Kannada, Oriya, Bengali, Punjabi, Marathi, etc.). Depending on one's native language, there are different versions of Indish like Hinglish (Hindi influenced), Manglish (Malayali version), and so on, but there's a common pattern among all these that make them Indish.

Someone introduced himself to me at the party, "Myself Mohan, and what is your good name?"
He had to explain to me later that these usages like Myself Mohan and good name were Indish or Indian English usages.
