For this Friday’s Funnies, we found a few signs that remind us of the importance of using human translators. These signs are great examples of what can go wrong when you rely on automatic translations. Enjoy!
- At a hostel: “We have good rooms and the price is very cheap. Have three human lives and have four human lives, many human lives”.
- In a grocery store: “On sale – the half old chicken”
- On a fire extinguisher: “A hand grenade”
- On a traffic sign: “Do drunken driving”
- At a park: “Do not disturb. Tiny grass is dreaming”
- A warning sign on a door: “Engine room is serious place”
