The primary language in Singapore is English (one of four official languages).
English is spoken virtually everywhere. English is an official language and the primary language of business — no language barrier to plan for.
Learning "hello," "please," "thank you," "excuse me," and "the check please" in the local language goes a long way anywhere, including Singapore — locals consistently appreciate the effort.
It's rarely necessary given how widely English is understood in Singapore, but it doesn't hurt to have one as a backup.
