Favorite Chinglish Phrases























(Clockwise from top left: Our university, Nora and Matt on a hike, Tanner's motorcycle with our red motorcycle and yellow scooter, Chinglish on a little boy's clothes, our Halloween Jack-O-Lantern)

1. On the cover of a notebook I bought...

"Love is
like playing the piana,
binat you muet
learn to play
ly the rulea,
then you muat
bamget the
rulea and play
brom your heart."

Pure Poetry.

2. On a nice, hooded sweatshirt...

A picture of a large, wooden, Swedish horse, and the words:
"Pleasure Swedish"

3. On the shirt of a student, in big, embroidered letters:
"Gray Mice: Long Live Youth Man"

4. On a t-shirt, the words were written inside of a penguin...

"Birds of a feather, flock together"

5. A male student describing himself to the class:
"My hair is black with little browns..."

6. A student of Matt's, seeing an airplane in the sky, exclaims with awe:
"Oh s*%$! It's beautiful!"

So many others...to be added later...

Hi, Guys! I just found your blog from Matt's facebook status! SO FUN! :)
Ok I have a Chinglish phrase (one of many): on a photo album cover: "I want to warm up myself, don't you?"
