Is there a counterpart for Chinglish?

What I mean is, is there a word that refers to Chinese that is negatively influenced by the speaker's native toungue, English? Has anyone heard anything before? I think I have said reverse-Chinglish, but I'm not sure if I have heard others say that. At any rate, I think there should be a word that doesn't have Chinglish built into it.
I officially nominate:
- Englinese
- or 英式中文 (although appropriate for telling one's problem when speaking Chinese, I think it seems less funny)
Any ayes? Nayes? Other suggestions?
