More Chinglish
Speaking in Tongues
More Chinglish: SPEAKING IN TONGUES offers a fresh look at the unintentional but very funny creative misuses of the English language in Chinese street signs, products, and advertising. Enjoy 100 brand-new examples of this unique cultural heritage, which, due to efforts from the Chinese government to wipe out all forms of incorrect signage and advertising, is about to disappear.
Chinglish: Found in Translation has sold more than 40,000 copies.
The Chinese government is trying to correct all of its incorrect signage. The issue has been featured on the Today show as well as in the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal.
