Tinglish

Thailand is well known for its TINGLISH. This is basically where something is printed and it either makes no sense, the spelling is wrong, or the grammar is just really bad...In other words, Thai and English put together. Here are a few great examples of things written in Tinglish. First is this sign in Pai, where I went for New Years. It Says Caution, Be slip down. This sign was posted at a waterfall where people can crawl over the rocks and up along the side. What it means to say is Caution, Slippery. The second two pictures are my favorite pieces of Tinglish ever! While in Lampang I spotted this shirt. Merissa thought it was so funny that she had to buy it! It says "Conquer Carry On Dancing Truly Madly Deeply Pinky Pinky A Frenzy Sayonara". This makes absolutely no sense. We think its basically just a bunch of song titles that they thought would go well together on a shirt. In reality its just ridiculously funny.
