50 Times People Made Such Funny English Mistakes, Others Just Had To Share Them In This Online Group (New Pics)
Sure, you might lose something in translation, but what you get in return—humor—is often more than worth it. English is a darn strange language when you really have a good and long think about it. The rules of spelling, for one, are so inconsistent, it practically borders on cosmically ironic poetry. And it can be a nightmare to learn for anyone hoping to study a second language… or, truth be told, for native speakers as well.
However, some English mess-ups are far worse and vastly more hilarious than others. The r/engrish subreddit has been sharing the most bizarre mistakes spotted all around the world for over 14 years, since 2008.
Check out the most hilarious English translations, typos, and errors below, Pandas. Be sure to upvote the ones that made you giggle the most. When you’re done, check out Bored Panda’s earlier article about the subreddit right over here. Oh, and keep in mind that nobody’s making fun of people who genuinely do their best: learning any new language is hard. But ridiculous mistakes are, well, genuinely funny—and they deserve to have an audience.

Bored Panda was very interested to figure out just how rare or widespread English errors like this actually are. That's why we reached out to a foreign exchange student who has recently moved from Europe to Japan's capital, Tokyo.
We had a chat about communicating with the locals in English, as well as the language mix-ups that she's personally seen with her own two eyes. The exchange student preferred to remain anonymous.
She told Bored Panda that, so far, it's been difficult finding Japanese people who choose to speak in English. "It’s difficult to communicate with the locals because they either do not speak English at all, but even those who speak some English are too embarrassed to try speaking it," she shared her firsthand experience.

Though it's easy to think that hilarious spelling and translation errors are to be found around every corner abroad, that's not really how things work. The reality is actually far more mundane: jaw-droppingly hilarious mistakes are few and far between. Though this rarity probably helps make them all the funnier.
"I haven’t noticed that many bad translations," the exchange student shared with us about her experience living in Tokyo and traveling around Japan so far.
"Sometimes, 'R' and 'L' are mixed up in an English word and it makes me wonder how did they miss that because I assume they use a translator/dictionary when making signs and stuff," she pointed out that, in Japanese, both of these letters are pronounced interchangeably. "But it’s not that common," she added.
"I haven’t seen any funny mistranslations, except one Italian-style restaurant had a really overall botched English menu translation," she said.

The r/engrish subreddit has amassed over 736k members in the nearly one-and-half decades since the online community was first created.
The moderators of the group ask people to follow the rules, including avoiding posting any intentional English mistakes. All errors have to be genuine. What’s more, tiny typos or unfunny spelling mistakes also aren’t the focus of the subreddit. The mess-ups have to be big, bold, and beautiful! Frankly, the more embarrassing and hilarious, the better
Everyone makes English mistakes. Whether you’re a foreigner or born in an English-speaking country doesn’t matter much. Your ability to write, edit, proofread, and translate well depends more on your work ethic and ability to learn than anything you’re born with.
Sure, native speakers might have a head start. But we’ve all seen way too many cases of people who can’t string a proper sentence together to believe that they have any long-lasting advantage. Talents and opportunities mean nothing if you don’t put in the hard work to nurture them.

I cannot for the life of me tell if this is satire but it's hilarious regardless
Writing for Aeon online magazine, John McWhorter a professor of linguistics and American, noted that English speakers “know that their language is odd. So do people saddled with learning it non-natively.”
“The oddity that we all perceive most readily is its spelling, which is indeed a nightmare. In countries where English isn’t spoken, there is no such thing as a ‘spelling bee’ competition. For a normal language, spelling at least pretends a basic correspondence to the way people pronounce the words. But English is not normal,” he points out.
“Spelling is a matter of writing, of course, whereas language is fundamentally about speaking. Speaking came long before writing, we speak much more, and all but a couple of hundred of the world’s thousands of languages are rarely or never written. Yet even in its spoken form, English is weird,” McWhorter writes.
“It’s weird in ways that are easy to miss, especially since Anglophones in the United States and Britain are not exactly rabid to learn other languages. But our monolingual tendency leaves us like the proverbial fish not knowing that it is wet. Our language feels ‘normal’ only until you get a sense of what normal really is.”

Previously, Lisa McLendon, from the University of Kansas, explained to Bored Panda why English is such a “train wreck” when it comes to spelling.
"English spelling is such a train wreck, with its myriad silent letters and wildly varying pronunciations for letters and letter combinations. But also, articles (a/an/the) tend to be difficult for people whose native language doesn’t have them, and our tense/aspect blend with combinations of auxiliary verbs makes the English verb system tricky even for native speakers sometimes," she told us during an earlier interview.

According to the professor, English isn’t spelled as it sounds for several reasons. Among them, we have to consider when certain words first entered the language, what their origins are, and when words were ‘codified.’
"People have proposed spelling overhauls before but they tend to not go anywhere, probably because it’s such a daunting project—could we all agree on what the changes would be?—and because then an entire body of texts would become basically a foreign language to the next generation. Many factors in addition to spelling contribute to a language’s 'character,' but some spellings do have echoes of archaic English—in my opinion, it would be a little bit sad to lose some of that," the professor told Bored Panda.

The language expert shared with us that spell check, as a whole, isn’t as great as many think it is. Sure, it’s wonderful for catching typos and misspellings, but it’s not quite up to part with our expectations yet.
"Where it’s more of a curse than a blessing is with homonyms/homophones because it won’t flag a word that is a word, but not the word you want. Think affect/effect, who’s/whose, led/lead but also word pairs like form/from and not-synonyms like bemuse/amuse, etc," she said.

Well if you know (even) basic Arabic, you'll know that these are actually colloquial/slang terms used in spoken Arabic and I am guessing they MUST communicate in English so they've literally translated every phrase. In their heads they still read it in Arabic and it makes perfect sense. And going by the Arabic text I am guessing this is Egyptian or some African dialect of Arabic. If I were to translate it by language and not by words the first email says Dear HR, please don't cut my salary, I have mouths to feed and rent to pay. I got children to take care of while you're living a lavish life.

Ok so this reminded me of years ago in high school when my friend and I were being stupid and talking to strangers in chat rooms (we were sharing a computer and using one account). This dude private messages us with a I HAVE BOYFRIEND. We were like "good for you?" He immediately corrected himself and said "U HAVE BOYFRIEND?"

Evan Andrews 3 years ago
Well.. she did start as a stripper. Most parents tell their kids to go to college for an education, but some rebel and become strippers. So maybe tell your kids to become strippers? Seems like solid logic

I Feel Motivated
Bored_NorWeirdian 3 years ago (edited)
Those stairs look like it’s a nightmare to clean… why do people use rugs on their stairs or cover their whole living room with it? Impossible to make it clean and it’s nasty af. I’m so it’s common in many countries, don’t understand why. A lot of work and it doesn’t even look good im sorry. Edit: didn’t mean to disrespect! Often people with rugs all over their house also walk inside with shoes they been wearing outside. You can get dog pee or poo on your carpet-house and I can only imagine what a nightmare it is to get rid of the smell and clean it?

Bruh. This pisses me off. When my German Shepherd was 12, she developed mammary cancer. My mom said she was going to "catch" cancer from my dog, that her cancer was "contagious". I was just a kid, so she made me euthanize my dog. My mom is the same kind of a-hole idiot as this truck's owner.

I suspect that the 'girlfriend' is a fake account created by the 'boyfriend' to stop his parents bugging him for being single and is now faking a break-up because the family want to meet his girlfriend because 2 different people don't use the exact same misspelling. Either that or they have both had the same lobotomy
