“神翻译”重现江湖

from Round Table 圆桌议事 · host FM49830

Many public venues in China put up signs in both Chinese and English, with the influx of millions of overseas tourists and an increasing number of expats living in China. But some of these venues should have been more thoughtful and dedicated in providing the information in English. The latest translation mishap was spotted in Xi'an North Railway Station (wait, according to regulations it should be translated as Xi'an Bei Station), in which the sign "Please wait behind the yellow line" becomes "Please wait outside a noodle". The actual Chinese is "请在一米线外等候". Is there a serious problem of bad English translations in China?

K. Chesterton (1874 - 1936) LibriVox LibriVox volunteers bring you 9 recordings of The Song Against Songs by G. K. Chesterton. This was the Fortnightly Poetry project for October 16, 2011.Chesterton was a large man, standing 6 feet 4 inches (1.93 m) and weighing around 21 stone (130 kg; 290 lb). His girth gave rise to a famous anecdote. During World War I a lady in London asked why he was not 'out at the Front'; he replied, 'If you go round to the side, you will see that I am.' On another occasion he remarked to his friend George Bernard Shaw: "To look at you, anyone would think a famine had struck England". Shaw retorted, "To look at you, anyone would think you have caused it". P. G. Wodehouse once described a very loud crash as "a sound like Chesterton falling onto a sheet of tin."( Summary from Wikipedia ) Serve into December: The College Volleyball Show Jeremy Cleveland Women’s college volleyball is awesome, and this podcast is built to prove it.
