I love reading them!
...Thanx all for your comments. I love reading them!<br /><br />@Licky: <br />Judging from your sense of humour, Mr Kim is an imaginary person right? Haha... The Japanese have got no "l" in their alphabet and their "r" is pronounced at "l". This explains why you're Licky and all other r-l spelling in Japlish. No way you're bad with language. <br /><br />@Rinny:<br />From the way they're translated, I reckon some of them definitely used an online translator though like what Rick above said, I would have paid a qualified translator to translate anything for my business.Johttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03809710184123691858noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-11013649252491264852011-10-01T15:46:49.549+08:002011-10-01T15:46:49.549+08:00LOL! i often see engrish in some places here in th...LOL! i often see engrish in some places here in the phils. :D thanks for sharing this site jo! :)sugar sugarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11253580008949063940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-61742416699834363752011-10-01T15:18:07.212+08:002011-10-01T15:18:07.212+08:00Hahahaha omg these translations are so funny!

I wonder if they just had one of those online translators translate the Chinese characters, because it definitely looks that way.

These are bet...I think I can eat two human shares!<br /><br />These are better than when Mr. Kim used to call me "Licky".<br /><br />I am so bad with languages that I'm never critical when people mispeak or translate a 2nd language. But you would think a business would pay an expert to edit their material. Maybe they did and the "experts" were as bad with language as I am. =)Ricademushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12347446705678305814noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7392001.post-4327856228088545552011-10-01T06:55:25.070+08:002011-10-01T06:55:25.070+08:00LOL.
