Translations Gone Wrong

In the modern world, plenty of people who speak different languages meet and mix very successfully.  Given that the proposed world language, Esperanto, never did catch on, most people are left to translate their own tongue into English - often with unfortunate results.  These are some of the funniest examples of translations gone wrong you'll ever see, and a couple of them have actually resulted in something quite rude. But it's all borne out of wonderful innocence of course!

1. At least it's fresh...

12. Follow your nostrils!

14. A slightly half-hearted chat up line (apparently a translation of 'You're One in a Million')

15. So many ways to prove I am the best!

16. Dreaming of watering cans and hose pipes presumably, but wait for those lawn mower nightmares!

17. Where most people aren't welcome

18. Get me in there!

19. A slightly specific noodles market.

20. This seems disconcertingly vague. I think I'd stick with the Sweet & Sour.

21. If it did that to the poor cow, what will it do to my stomach??

22. The agony of having to choose...

  3. How funny, Cat. Some of these put me right off any appetite I had. Although I would be willing to try the Soup for Sluts.
