Here's an example of Engrish I stumbled across today from Taiwan.

Usually, it's fairly obvious what's gone wrong in the translation, but in this case I just can't work out what they want to get across with that tag line at the bottom of the banner...

Any ideas?

(for those of you who can't link to this site, it says "Slime More Than Your Biscuit..." WTF?)

Ah, yes, it could be that as well. In fact, on reflection, it's more likely to be that.

I was working on the assumption that the picture quality would make you dribble more than a baby with a biscuit.

So, from now on when someone who has been on a diet asks me how they look, I will say "slime more"!

Simples, watching porn on the new high quality lcd screen will make you drool as much as a tasty jaffa cake will.

I'm good at foreign, me. wink

Actually, I think "Our picture quality will make you dribble more than a baby with a biscuit" is a pretty good tag line.

Plotters?
