More and more Engrish … When does it stop?

Posted by scott in Tokyo

Are graphics design shops in Japan really that isolated from native English speakers? Couldn’t those in charge of what goes on a t-shirt, on a shop sign or certainly on a product’s packaging take some initiative to verify their translations aren’t messed before they send things off to production? Surely there’s the odd foreigner around that could help them out?

Fortunately for us – this doesn’t appear to be the case.

The Engrish never stops. Not in this country at least …

    [...] More videos are well on their way – but until then how about some more of that never ending Engrish? [...]
