Lost in the translation

[Hosakawa Tito]

I just saw this article on Chinglish (http://www.nytimes.com/slideshow/2010/05/03/world/asia/20100503_CHINGLISH.html) and had to share. Pics 4 & 5 are my favorites.:laugh4:

Very humerous.

I love these kinds of things. A thesaurus run amuck. :laugh4:

Good stuff, el tito. I always remember back in the 80's trying to put some furniture together and getting an incredible chinglish manual along with the kit which was made in Taiwan. I wish I'd kept it. I'll never forget one of the instructions for putting the kit together:

"Step 5) Care should be taken so that a finger"

Words to live by, clearly.

This is the real reason why I'll study Sinology.

[Rhyfelwyr]

Epic. :laugh4:

No. 8 was my favourite...

[Lemur]

4 & 8 for the win.
