Down with fever, cough and flu. I guess i must be plagued with some weird disease!! Coz every morning, i will feel rather fine. But in the afternoon, the fever never fails to return. My temperature will soar from a mild 36.8 in the morning to a overwhelming high 38.8 in the afternoon. Stop laughing if u are!! Coz it's true!! LOLz!! Even mum thinks that perhaps i am possessed by some dirty things. Hahaz.
Since it is juz 11.41am in the morning now. i fEel inspired to churn out an entry today before my fever come haunting me like a DEMON again!! LOLz!!
"Use accurate english to welcome the olympics!!" China's slogan for the olympics!! Hahaz. Actually, i dun even know if it is a slogan for the olympics. Juz a wild guess of mine. LOLz!! But in recent years, it's true that China has been urging its ppl to learn better english. But bad english is still widely used. Esp seen on signs and boards!!
i happen to found this website http://language.chinadaily.com.cn/herewego/. The website shows "Chinglish Signs" that has totally bad english that couldn be understand unless u read the chinese words. But i believe the website aims to correct such bad english as there are forum for others to discuss and rectify the error.
One such sign will be:
It reads:"The slight effort altogether creates civilization"
If u think this is bad, what abt this? Personally, i thought this was worst!!
Please according to priorty for visitance.
Huh?? Is there a word call visitance?? At least, the first one still make some sense. But the second one will leave those Angmoh with a puzzled look. Hmm..actually both will. LOLz.
While the chinese are busy upgrading themselves to be bilingual. The Angmohs are so obsessed with our culture that they want it on their bodies so much. Have u read today'sNew Paper. There was an article on angmohs tatooing their body with chinese characters which means nothing or worst, it means the wrong thing. I have also found some pictures on the website. Gonna post them now!!
This lady here has really got a sense of humour. She actually tatooed the characters "Duo Xie" on her leg. What has her leg got to do with "Thank you" But at least the characters were right and they make sense too.
Some are senseless and even the characters are wrong!!
Here is an example for you
HUh!! What the hell is this?? I believe this woman here wanted something like "Ma Mi"--direct tanslation from Mommy. But the 'nv' and the 'ma' is not link together. And the 'mi' still needs a 'kou'. (In terms of traditional chinese) SO instead, it turns out to be a "female horse rice". I bet that mother should be too happy abt it. Hahaz...
