China's New Battle Against Engrish

By Dr. Elara Vance | January 01, 0001

While the botched “Engrish” translations in video games like Zero Wing, the Ninja Warriors and Metal Gear have provided us with years of amusement and long-running memes, officials in China are trying to stamp out mangled English.(new Image()).src = 'https://capi.connatix.com/tr/si?token=995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c&cid=872d12ce-453b-4870-845f-955919887e1b'; cnx.cmd.push(function() { cnx({ playerId: "995c4c7d-194f-4077-b0a0-7ad466eb737c" }).render("79703296e5134c75a2db6e1b64762017"); }); The New York Times reports on the Shanghai Commission for the Management of Language Use’s efforts to scrub out delightfully flubbed translations like listings of “fried enema” from Chinese ww winner55 restaurant menus and “urine district” bathroom signs. With some 600 volunteers, Engrish exterminators in Shanghai have updated some 10,000 public signs and helped hundreds of restaurants update their menus. Officials in Beijing went far beyond that in preparation for the 2008 summer Olympics, addressing “Chinglish” gems like the Dongda Anus Hospital.

Engrish in games may be all but สมัคร winner55 เครดิตฟรี​ extinct winner55 ทางเข้า สล็อต​ and efforts in the real world may wipe it out altogether. Are we worse off for it?
