Franglais examples - in other languages?

We cannot help notice how easily English combines with other languages to produce other families of humorous words, for example:

• Engrish - English and Japanese
• Australish -Australian and English
• Spanlish - Mexican Spanish and English
• Wenglish - English and Welsh

What we are curious to know is if the other languages combine amongst themselves to produce yet more funny words, for example is there the equivalent of Franglais if you combine French and German (Freger) or Spanish and Italian (SpanIt)?
