Today's gem from the recording booth

"I'm going on holiday to Egypt. I really want to see the Pyramids and The Neil."

Well, OK, it's more a typo than a classic piece of Chinglish - but it would never find its way into a tapescript or a student textbook in a country that could be bothered to make any investment in proof-reading.

my friend found the best-ever chinglish street sign. i don't know how to post an image in the comments box so i'll need to figure out some other way of showing it to you. perhaps, eg, posting it on my blog.

The. Best.

No, I don't think it's possible to post photographs in the 'comments'. I will keep my eyes peeled.
