Esbo--
Welcome to A2K.
Are you sure of your spelling? Could you possible mean "mingling"?
"Mingling" is a word describing social mixing. At a party some guests might talk only to the people they know well, while others, more poised and confident, mix and mingle, making new friends.
No idea about the "minging".
'Sum' means "I am", "ne" is like a question mark "?", notifying that the sentence is a question.
Minging means horrible, nasty.
It's a slang term in common usage amongst chavs.
Jade (BB) said it in one of the old BB's when she found out she had a verruca:
"Am I minging?"
Dictionary of U.K. slang:
minge Noun. The female genitals. Derived from dialect, which ultimately may have its roots in the Romany, minj. [1900s]
mingebag Noun. 1. A despicable person. Derog.
2. A miser. Derog.
minger Noun. A physically undesirable, smelly, or ugly person. Pronounced with a hard G. E.g."It wasn't 'til we woke, the next morning, that I realised quite what a minger she was. I left pretty damn sharpish before she asked for my phone number."

In a Black & White world, mingling leads to minging, but they are obviously not identical.
Is it only coincidence that smorgs is covering her mouth to hide what looks like laughter?
Nice picture, smorgs.
Hey, this sounds like phoenic Chinese.
My hand is covering a large hairy mole on my chin.

I seem to remember that it rhymes with "hinge" rather than with "wing," is that right?
Minger rhymes with winger
Minge (the naughty one) rhymes with hinge
