Engrish 101 Part two

Herro! Welcome to the second part of How to Write in Engrish!!
Without further delay...

STEP FOUR: Use an emotional appeal in the sign.

 "Please don't step on me, I am very painful!"

My heart totally feels for the fresh blades of grass that cover up the sign.
I am so scared for the pain that will be inflicted by the grass, as it is "very painful!" :P




STEP FIVE: Put all your words together in the same sentence, and don't use punctuation.

I don't get the random capitalization either..











STEP SIX: Switch out words to confuse the reader.

what is a "fauing tree branch"??
I am confused.

Have a wonderful new year!

Engrish 101: How to write proper Engrish

Hi,
This is a blog about funny English signs that I have spotted in China. There is mixed up grammar, incorrectly spelled words, and more.
So today's post will be on how to write in Engrish! :)

STEP ONE: randomly put words together to the point that no one can understand you.
For example:
Apparently, it's SUPPOSED to mean "Work hard". How did that happen??
"haidlv"??






Anyways, onto STEP TWO: Literally translate everything. EVERYTHING.
For example:
Um...thanks? I don't really want to "GO DOWN."
Couldn't you say "Continue going down the stairs"?
What happened to your etiquette? :)







STEP THREE: Be cool and add extra letters to words.

"I will certainly openning the door for you!"
what else is there to say??






That's all for now, but check here later for more steps on how to speak Engrish!
