According to Collins English Dictionary, a number of common English words have in fact been influenced by Hinglish. These include the words "shampoo", from the Hindi word for massage or knead; "cushy", which stems from the Hindi word for pleasant; "cot" which originates from the Hindi word for hammock or bedstead; and "thug" from the Hindi word for cheat or thief.
根据《柯林斯英语词典》，不少常用的英语单词其实都受到了印度英语的影响。这其中就包括单词shampoo（洗发香波），这个词原来是印度语，意思是按摩或揉捏；单词cushy（轻松的）也源自印度语，意思是“愉快的”；单词cot（简易床），在印度语中的意思是吊床或床架；还有thug（暴徒），在印度语中的原义是欺骗或偷窃。
Common Hinglish phrases, with borrowed British words, include: "Time kya hua hai?" - which means "what is the time right now?"; and "I have hazaar things on my mind right now" which means "I have a thousand of things on my mind right now."
常用的含有英语舶来语的印度英语短语包括Time kya hua hai?，意思是“现在是几点钟？”还有I have hazaar things on my mind right now，意思是“我现在脑中千头万绪”。
While there is evidence of Hinglish being around since the 17th century, and featuring in poetry in 19th Century, it took off notably as part of popular culture in the 1990s with the rise of music channels like MTV. It is now said to be ubiquitous in Bollywood film.
有证据显示从17世纪起印度英语就已经存在了，而且还出现在19世纪的诗歌中，20世纪90年代随着MTV等音乐频道的兴起，印度英语作为流行文化的一部分使用量也显著增加。如今，据说印度英语在宝莱坞电影中无处不在。
Examples of Bollywood films using Hinglish in the titles include "Ek Tha Tiger" (Once There was a Tiger), "Love Aaj Kal" (Love Today Tomorrow) and "Shaadi Ke Side Effects" (The Side Effects of Marriage).
宝莱坞电影在片名中使用印度英语的例子包括Ek Tha Tiger（从前有只虎），Love Aaj Kal（爱在今天与明天），还有Shaadi Ke Side Effects（婚姻的副作用）。
