NOTIFICATION SQUAD: MOIST WITH ME. Favourite Engrish example in the video? There's certainly a fair few to choose from... And a big thanks to everyone that stopped by for my 30th birthday live show on the Abroad Perspective channel! For those that missed the mayhem, you can watch it here: kzbin.info/www/bejne/lXi2dqmgeN5-f8U I'm thinking about using the second channel for monthly live shows, having done it twice this year and enjoyed it both times. Keep an eye out!

@@aryan_bo.x it's not incorrect. it just ends up as a sort of amusing term on a different level, because normally we would consider the words "stupid" and "wise" to be opposites. "coining a phrase" (or term) essentially just means coming up with a new or interesting phrase or term, or creating a clever turn on an old phrase. So, basically I was saying I thought they came up with a pretty good/amusing term when they combined those words. Just ended up as having an added sort of amusing play on words that I thought was fun :)

I recently had a CAT-scan at my local hospital. The huge machine was a well-known Japanese brand, with Pokemon instruction characters on a video screen and a young female voice giving instructions in English with a heavy Japanese accent. Apparently about when to hold my breath and when to breath again. I have a hearing loss (20%) but couldn't wear my hearing-aids during the procedure. I must have miss-understood them, as I held my breath throughout the 3 minute scan. When the injected contrast solution took effect, I couldn't hold it any longer - and shouted "Help". Where-upon a Code Blue alert was called and a team of doctors raced-in from the nearby Emergency Department. I was OK and went home later. The hospital is now reviewing their CAT-Scan procedures, to include prior briefings for patients - about how to handle the procedure and what to expect - without Pokemon characters with Japanese accents !

"As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands" Yes, I remember when I was 15 and I just had a terrible day at the basketball court. As I tried several times to make some shots with just one hand, I kept thinking to myself "man, I wish I had two hands like the other kids. I'd be making so many shots". Disappointed, I went home, holding the basketball under my arm while grabbing my backpack with my hand. I came to the door, put everything down and grabbed my keys in my pocket. Weird. The lights were out, but usually at this time either my mom or dad would already be home. I shrugged and turned the key. As the door creaked, I heard some noise come from inside the house. I couldn't quite place what the sound was. Whispers maybe? I tried to find the switch with my hand and nervously cried out "hello?". Once I reached the switch, the lights were on, even though I didn't press it. To my surprise, all my friends and family were there and in unison they yelled "surprise!". I was in complete shock. I mean, it was only August, my birthday wasn't until 4 months. There were balloons, cake, everyone was dressed so nicely whereas I was a complete sweaty slob coming from the court. They hugged me with big smiles on their faces as my face showed confusion. Behind them, a gigantic banner rolled down to show the words "CONGRATS, YOU HAVE TWO HANDS!". And suddenly it all came to me. I had heard about that, my parents always told me my body would change with puberty, but I'd never expected that I'd get an extra hand. The world of possibilities flashed in front of my eyes. I wasn't gonna suck so much playing basketball or even videogames! Typing on a keyboard was going to be smooth sailing now. Even now, as I write this, my eyes water as I remember my Hand Reveal Party. It's such a special moment in any kids life.

I wouldn’t trust Google translate. It’s pretty good for most things, but doesn’t have any clear understanding of every day Japanese. Then again maybe it’s everyday English it has trouble with. 😂 At any rate, I try Google translate every once in a while and together with my Japanese instructor try to figure out how they came up with that particular translation. The best one was a case where there was like half a screen of Japanese and the Google translation was completely empty. It used to be when Google hit something I didn’t understand it would translate it phonetically, but then a few years ago it just stopped translating things it didn’t understand. Here’s a fun thing to try. Translate something into whatever language you want to try from English using Google translate. Then copy the translation into Google translate and translate it back into English.😂

It seems everything on the bag is from a poem by American TV host & writer Sam Levenson called Time Tested Beauty Tips _“For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. _ _For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. _ _For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. _ _For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day. _ _For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone. _ _People even more than things have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed and redeemed and redeemed; never throw out anybody._ _Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm._ _As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands: one for helping yourself, the other for helping others._ _The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. _ _ The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!_"

The kana sound that's normally transliterated as "R" in Japanese is really sort of intermediate between the "R" and "L" sounds in English. So when transliterating English in to kana you both sounds get mapped to the same representation - so the word "robot" becomes "ロボット“ (ROBOTTO) and "London" becomes "ロンドン” (RONDON) - but this is a transformation that loses information and when going the other way you have to infer the correct letter to use in English. This is how you end up with things like "Eric Crapton" and "Quarity".

In the English translation it said "Local special product supermarket soil yourself". 2. On a reastaurant menue they had locally grown mushrooms, English translation "local bacteria". 3. On a sign entering a park it was written in Chinese "making fires in the park are prohibited", the English translation "don't catch on fire!".

I always love it when non english speakers walk around with shirts saying "slut" and other offensive words, it's clear they were to lazy to even do a google image search. I bought some pajamas from Lidl with kanji on it. I went through a whole damn dictionary to make sure it actually meant "calm like a river " and not something else, even if I'd never wear those clothes in public.

It seems everything on the bag is from a poem by American TV host & writer Sam Levenson called Time Tested Beauty Tips _“For attractive lips, speak words of kindness._ _For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people._ _For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry._ _For beautiful hair, let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day._ _For poise, walk with the knowledge you’ll never walk alone._ _People even more than things have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed and redeemed and redeemed; never throw out anybody._ _Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you’ll find one at the end of your arm._ _As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands: one for helping yourself, the other for helping others._ _The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman must be seen from in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides._ _The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mole, but true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives, the passion that she shows, and the beauty of a woman with passing years only grows!_

I've seen some interesting English in my trips to Japan. There was the mail box with the sign "No! Do not put the thing on it!" There was a guy a unloading a shipping van with a T-shirt that read "SLUT 18" on the back. But the one that takes the cake is the gift bag that used clippings from an English language newspaper as a design feature. It was clear they didn't have any native English speaker curating the article selection, because the most prominent one was was a letter-to-the-editor with the title "Why I'm Raising My Children to be White Supremacists." Also last time I was in Japan I bought some "Tex-Mex" nail clippers.

Yes, I literally took this advice to heart 10 yrs ago and began writing with my left hand as a righty. I'm ambidextrous now. I can do everything twice as long. When one hand gets tired, I just switch. Another weird thing is, when I do things with my left I somehow enjoy the difficulty so to speak, so whatever I do, I can keep on pushing through. It's like I have not emotionally connected to my left hand yet, and it's like I'm observing myself working etc. Take a Japanese Engrish quote to heart and see what kind of Jindianna Jones you can become!
