Chinglish for dummies
Because the English and Chinese languages are so different, efforts by the Chinese to translate their language into English can often produce hilarious results. In restaurants in China, you can eat “fried enema” and “monolithic tree mushroom stem squid” and drink “The Jew’s Ear Juice.” If you want to buy clothes and you are on the large size then you can get them in “fatso” or “lard bucket.” If you need to use a public restroom then you should go to the "urine district" and if you have a medical problem in a sensitive region then you should visit the "Dondga Anus Hospital." Finally, what would a trip to China be without a walk through "Racist Park?"
