The equation is simple : Chinese + English = Chinglish
In a nutshell it’s a form of English spoken by Chinese natives.
Seems harmless enough right? That said, if you come to China you’ll without doubt have a rather hilarious run in with Chinglish somewhere down the line.
They generally come in the form of warning signs at tourist spots or on the road, or perhaps in a Chinese menu. Everyday activities breed opportunities for seeing some fantastic examples of Chinglish.If you’ve been to China, you’ll be fully aware, if you’ve not, you are about to be enlightened.Here are some impressions :-)
they mean disable man ..
my all time favorit
WoSchi you dear, that is new to me. I enjoyed the expressions very much. The deformed men Toilet….or slip and fall carefully.
I will try and find some more sentences somewhere..I hope.
Take care

here is another one :-)
Probably one of the more instantly hilarious ones you’ll come across upon first glance!
This is an interesting one to break down because in theory, it’s all correct but let’s explain:
- 大 – Big
- 操 – To Grasp (but also f*ck)
- 厅 – Hall
Another one where you need to look twice and more before actually comprehending what you’ve just read!
- 施工 – Construction
- 中 – Middle of/During
- 不准 – Forbid/Prohibit
- 使用 – Apply/Make Use of
as seen on this page :-)
