Chinglish

Chinglish

As we know English language is very popular all over the world. A lot of people speak it as a native language and even more as a second language. English is very different due to the fact that it's spoken in absolutely different parts of the world. We know the English language in Britain and the one they speak in Australia can be called two different languages.

Of course China is not the exception. Today a lot of people in China try to learn this European language. The result of it is such a phenomenon as Chinese English, or Chinglish.

So, what is it? It's a strange and sometimes funny combination of English and Chinese. Sometimes the term "chinglish" is applied to ungrammatical English in Chinese context. This kind of English exists almost only in China and can be mostly seen on road signs, advertisments and banners. For those who can speak both Chinese and English, or even for those who speaks only English it can be very funny to read all this nonsense, the translation of Chinese signs and ads into English.
Here are some examples.
