My coworker asked me... what would be a good definition for "Chicken Nuggets" in Kuwait. Below is what I came up with.... any additions/suggestions?
The term “Chicken Nuggets” refers to a group of Kuwaiti people who uses English as their mother language. Those people cannot say a full sentence in Arabic without having to switch to English at least once per sentence. In most cases those Chicken Nuggets went to private schools and/or studied abroad in the States/Europe. In rare cases there are those who would just adapt to the group by the surroundings or for the sake of being “in”. Some see it as a phenomena, others see it as an evolution.

Yeah I know some of those people but I never knew there was a term for them ! Is it commonly used in Kuwait?
yeah I would add "it's also known that they're the majority users of BB services in q8, where they can type a 200 letter message in like no time" :p
I am a Chicken Nugget.
But I am no Spring Chicken.
Ansam, I have heard that term is used in a derogatory sense, is that true?
LOOL! i get called that all the time!

Dual responses for all audiences:
Chicken-nugget reply: Here's what I hate - people of the 'rare' third category whose English sucks McFlurry. It's an oxymoron when one has limited vocabulary/spelling/grammar skils AND insists on speaking in English. Or maybe it's not an oxymoron but he/she's a moron.

Hahahahah, what happened now!
I used to be confused from those guys, until I left college. I became like them unaware. Probably because of my comp major, and being in corporate surrounded by western means we adapt more and more english phrases that we feel more convenient expressing our selves with them.
