Question--what do you think of the English translation?

Needs work.

Indeed. I think China is in serious need of English speaking employees to proof their signs. I wonder if the author of that sign was even literate in Chinese?

I deal with this issue daily as an Editor and nearly every manuscript requires being processed through a professional service in China.

Rufus,
I seldom have a problem with understanding your writing but do you mean that you send manuscripts to China for (editorial) processing
or that those from China need processing?

I receive them and invariably they need significant revision to be acceptable in English - it appears that there is a substantial business operational in China to do this editing.

Indeed, your English writing can be fantastic. Send your documents to Proofreading Services in Beijing, Guangzhou, Chongqing, or Chengdu, and you can achieve stellar English writing for a small fee.

Why not just use Grammarly? Grammarly even has a Rock Sign Mil.


I think that should be, "The Rock Sign of your choice." Bad Chinese to English translation again.

The Rock Sign in question is at 5:06 in this video:> https://youtu.be/GzJnOrr5RUE

Might have been colder,

Literally, a snowball's chance in Hell and getting a cold shoulder.

[Rufus T. Firefly]

A cold shoulder might the least of his concerns

Excellent point.

Probably only if Florida has joined and relocated to Great Britain.
