Computex 2007 - Lost In The Translation
written by John Chow
Here are some some funny English signs we came across while touring Computex and Taipei. We’ll forgive them because English is not the main language of the country, but it’s still funny.

The the choice of enthusiasts worldwild. I’m sure enthusiasts really do go wild for the product.

We’re still trying to find their blog.

You can find the Mega Bank at the Mega Holdings Building. I guess that’s what you call the building if you can’t use the name Trump.

This company makes some fine chit. I’m sure they make the best fine chit in Taipei, maybe even the world.

We’re not exactly sure how Yoyo translate to Young & Open but the female clothing store did have a lot of young girls inside. However, we are not sure how open they were.

Inside the Young & Open store, you can find this really sheet T-shirt!

Please don’t ask us where we saw this sign.

I said not to ask us where we saw it!
Holy “chit”! Seriously gave me a good chuckle. You almost have to read them twice. Well maybe I’m the only one.
Does it say “no fucking” under that sign?
John, get back to the computex. you’ve walked the way too far
I like the last one lol
I wasn’t expecting to see that last one — good eye though, John LOL!
The last one is the best
John,
I think I don’t like the last one. Too censored for a sign. (^_^)
The last one rules. No sucky fucky!!!
the no f***ing sign has to be on a t-shirt
The bells on the top part is a bit odd though. Maybe they ring when…never mind.
lmao!
I suppose you’re right.
There’s a lot of nice chit in that clothing store. Haha.
Yeh the last one was definatly the best
haha funny last one
Very weird place! the last one has to be the best!

Why don’t you buy a T-Shirt a your travel sign from Taipei.
I normally never comment here, but that post was hi-larious!!
Yeah, that post had some fine chit in it!
I don’t understand the Fine Chit company, do the buy find chit or sell fine chit? If the buy it, are they looking for vendors? I have some fine chit for them.
manufactory…now thats a creative way to combine two words
I think the last sign is from a t-shirt
yea.. reminds me of those subway tshirts in london.
Haha, fine chit. I will definitely look for them for all my metal manufacturing needs.
I love the last one… I need the last one if it is a T-Shirt
I liked the last 1 , John, may be another competition winner for “backlink” can get that “no f**k” t-shirt as prize ,wht say ?
Great pictures!
Your comments make them even funnier…
Almost everyone thinks that last picture is awesome. My favorite word of the day: Worldwild — definitely somewhere I want to live in.
You need to tell us where that last one was… and it better not be the men’s bathroom!
Engrish rules.
HAHAHA!
Engrish is one of my favorites.
LOL the last one was jokes
[...] John is showing off some fine chit at his blog. [...]
I like the fine chit one. those signs reminds me of the ones the chinese are removing to prepare for the 2008 olympics. One of the signs removed was for handicapped bathrooms that read “deformed people restroom” or something.
Ah! the fine art of Engrish sign writing.
love it.
lots more examples on flickr:

Fine Chit… I need to start getting my chit from there!
There is actually an entire website devoted to the art of Engrish…

The last sign must have been inside a public bathroom, lol!
If that sign were in a public place in America I’m sure people would find a reason to sue over it.
Haha there is really such a sign!
