Broken English is a name for a nonstandard, non-traditionally spoken, or alternatively-written version of the English language.

These forms of English are sometimes considered pidgin if they have been derived in a context where more than one language is used.

Under the most commonly accepted definition of the term, broken English consists of English vocabulary grafted onto the syntax of a non-English speaker’s native language, including word order, other aspects of sentence structure, and the presence or absence of articles in the speaker’s native language.

Typically, the non-English speaker also strips English phrases of linguistic markings that are definite articles or certain verb tenses.
