Engrish Break
I've been going through old photos tonight and re-discovered my Engrish collection. Sit back and enjoy....
Seems like they just take verious words from a dictionary. Why don't they just copy an entire sentance or phrase. At least that will maybe increase the chance that it makes some sense.
I love them.
ReplyDeleteWhenever I go shopping I am always on the lookout for funny engrish.
But I haven't found too much recently. Maybe they are cottoning on and getting things checked before printing? Oh no!
