Very funny, then I realized that my French and Spanish must sound at least that bad. That means there are a lot of REALLY polite people out there not laughing at me (until after I leave)

Well, the good news is that, despite the best efforts of everybody here, I have managed to find one reasonable site related to Indian English. It's not quite what I'm after, but it's not bad either.

Oh yeah, JH, that's good. I spent two years living in Asia, and I can hear that whole conversation! Thanks for the laugh...

I hadn't thought of Hinglish, maahey, but it would a nice complement to the Singlish link Hev gave me. The Hobson Jobson dictionary link was exactly what I was looking for. If you ever come across a paper (published online) that examines Indian English, I'll snag that too, but for now, your dictionary link, and the "Indian Literature in English" page will do nicely. Thanks again.

Thanks to all who made suggestions, my page has hit the ton. The Englishes section now looks pretty good, even including Niw Englisc, and I found a couple of interesting text repositories as well. Again, fa'afetai to all who helped.
