A Legendary in Lingnan University by Kenny Lau


I would like to take my pork with a soup and a chinese.

------------------
Analysis :Once upon a time,a professor distinguished the difference between Bilingual and code mixing.
For me, the Muen translation herein is just code mixing as a foreigner would not fully understand what that is inside the meal which is not articulate enough not to mentioned those mistakes existing in translation.
------------------
Why? It is likely that the food in Canteen mainly servers for Chinese. Such mistake can be a proof to illustrate the lack of awareness of english and another possibility is the incompetent language of the producer.Consequently, It turns out a joke.
-------------
YUMMMMM, It is illicit to have a chinese, isn't it ?

  1. I remember the last news report about the translation of the menus in universities' canteens did not mention our school. However, the carelessness in translation can be easily found. The existence of language mistakes in university really makes the reputation notorious!
