  3. I’ve beed in Beijing in 2000. I saw lots of wrong and awkward translations there. I also loughed so hard at that time. I wondered who did that translations, because I saw many univ students were actually studying English really hard and some of them were pretty good at speaking English. Maybe local translations firms need to hire those students :S

  4. No doubt this is funny. You’ll see these combinations of English with other languages all around the world. Store, room, hall, fashion, delivery, etc, etc.

  6. I think English is a simple language in which you don’t have to think about anything. I have seen that some words in English have same meaning but different seance. So this can be a problem otherwise this is really a good language.
