Fluent in Engrish

Standard

I would never make fun of someone for their accent or making a mistake learning a second language… but a t-shirt company, really?  Clearly English editors are needed in this country. Maybe I can actually get work here!  Japan is so advanced in so many ways, seeing Engrish seems incongruent.  Just check next time you are thinking about getting that tattoo of the chinese character for “Hope.”  It’s easier to make a mistake than you think, and then people like me who can read that language will laugh at you.
