Chinglish Signs: Misc.

These are some funny English signs that we saw on our trip that didn’t really fit into any category so I’m putting them all together here for your comedy pleasure.

This was on a sign out front of a camera shop. All the other wording was misspelled or awkward but they at least made a little sense. I have no idea what camera service they are trying to offer here.

When we first walked by, and took this picture, the restaurant was closed. I expected it was going to be run by some nerdy ex-pat and all the dishes would have Hitchhikers themed names and such. Turns out just a couple of regular old Chinese people ran it and it served regular cheap dishes. I would love to know the story on how they ended up with this sign.

This isn't chinglish, it just gets points for being clever. It was at an Indian food restaurant with a low clearance stairwell.

Why waste all your money on the iphone when you can get an O phone for half the price?! Or who knows, maybe Oprah is breaking into the telecommunications industry and she's testing the Asian markets first.

I Won “Favorite Teacher!”

College has started and students have come back to school after being gone for 6 months, so I wasn’t surprised when a few students contacted me to ask if I was still on campus. But I was surprised when they said they wanted to see me and give me flowers.
