It’s not so often that one spots a translated sign that is a complete and utter failure in every possible way. I mean, sometimes it’s a grammatical problem; others, it’s a nonsensical problem. But in this case, it makes perfect sense! It’s just spelled wrong….very, very wrong!
And so, I present to you a sign that was spotted in the Chinese city of Dali… Drum roll, please!
“Bick.” “Bike.” Same, same, right?

Same, same for sure. I’ve seen turquoise blue water (redundant phrasing to begin with) spelled out in a tour company brochure as turkeys blue and crispy spring rolls listed as crospy spring rolls. Down to a lack of proof reading I guess.
Still fun and you ended up with a great photo with this one.
Ah the joys of mangled English. Sadly, the fact that English so complicated really doesn’t help the situation! Love the “crospy” spring rolls!
haha this is fantastic. I love badly translated signs.
Me too! 🙂
