Japan is known for a lot of things. Including “Engrish”. If you’re asking yourself right now “WTF is Engrish, dude?”, I’ll explain…
“Engrish” is nothing more than the attempt at writing (or even speaking) English in a horrendous and sometimes abhorrent way. It’s when Japanese (or any other Asian) write or speak English with grotesque grammar errors.
However, most of these attempts at English language are mostly for fashion. Japanese people usually use some English words in clothes, propaganda and media just for the sake of “style”. For that reason, most English words or phrases are either gramatically incorrect or mean jack sh*t.
Below, you’ll see a compilation of the best moments at English attempt. Enjoy.
