I better not get in trouble for this :D
Any real life examples of Engrish to share? I'm living in Hong Kong as we speak so I've seen several, though not of them is unintentional engrish (which is why it's so funny imo).
- There's a supermarket chain here called 'Wellcome' which I mentioned to DMKA almost immediately. The interesting thing is that either the misspelling was intentional for whatever reason, or they just wouldn't rename it after all these years. I wanna see a PR release about that.
I say this because Wellcome is a huge supermarket chain, not some 'lolz lookit' store.
- I've posted this elsewhere but I was wandering around the subway when I saw an azn girl with 'I <3 pony' all over her shirt. So luckily I had my camera on me, and basically for about five minutes you would have seen me chasing this girl and trying to get a shot of her back. Man I did the most blurry pictures that time xD
- Right now I'm auditing a company that trades in toys. This %^>@# I can't make up:
200 pcs maracas
360 pcs tombourine
360 pcs triangle
360 pcs drum
** Goods completed on 5-Jan-2004 & Kept in nice China factory.
xD
