CIT Blog: English in China
March 1, 2010

Any Westerner who has much experience traveling in China has seen firsthand the problems created by attempts to translate Chinese into English. In defense of the non-native English speakers charged with this potentially embarrassing task, English is, of course, in so many ways a vastly different language from Chinese. Still, it’s hard not to chuckle at some of the crude, inappropriate, and unintentionally hilarious results of their attempts: a phenomenon known as "Engrish." In my travels I’ve come across many instances of Engrish, which I’ve begun to document, especially as the quality of public English translations in China improves and Engrish begins to disappear.

(To read the rest of this post and see amusing Engrish pictures, visit our blog page.)
