Engrish Test!

Hello! Happy 2013 :)
 I decided to start a new "how to" series, this one on How To Grade an Engrish Sign.

Here is my grading scale :P
A+  Everything is misspelled, the grammar is completely wrong, and the sign is written in a way that no one could possibly understand what was supposed to be written.
B    There are some perfect spellings, but the grammar is messed up. You can still kind of tell the original meaning.

C  Pretty much everything is spelled right, but the order of one or two words is switched. The original meaning is clear.

D  The sign is fine, but there is just something not quite right with it...

F The sign is perfect. You cannot consider it Engrish.


Today I will do one example, and hopefully I will post more in a few days.

I would give this a C-, because the only thing spelled wrong is "Beveragez".  I don't know if they were just trying to be cool, but who does that? (by the way, I took this picture at an airport in China)






That's all for now, but please check here later for more Engrish Testing!

Funny/Confusing signs

The following signs are so bad (funny) that I have nothing left to say.

"Be waterful"???
Am I supposed to be a WATERFALL or am I supposed to be WONDERFUL?

Why would you advise the public on restroom use?
...and what do you mean by, "the adjacent bigger and spacious toilets"?

This is a great example of all the Asian ripoffs of American brands/ideas/clothes/EVERYTHING.
In America, there is the store Forever 21.
In China,  there is now Forever 26. Way to be creative.





I hope you enjoyed these photos, and be sure to check here later for more Engrish signs!
