Today at work I received an "auto response" e-mail from a coworker that is on vacation and happens to be of the Asian persuasion. The e-mail read:
"Min take vacation until April 23 Re: delivery attempt"
I love when Asian interpretation of English is just slightly off like this. I often go shopping at "HT Market" near my house, which caters to a lot of Asian and "ethnic" groceries. Same thing there, the instructions on imported products will be in English, but totally incorrect.
There's also a great site that features exclusively fucked up Asian-English translations called Engrish Funny. I don't know what do you think, is this better than Accidental Dong?
