Travelers beware! As the most commonly spoken language in the world, English has reached every corner of the globe-but sometimes the message gets scrambled along the way. Explore the very best (and worst) instances of unintentional communication comedy found in street signs, on menus, and in advertising-often the result of bad translation. Screwed Up English is the perfect traveling companion that proves why you shouldn’t always believe what you read.
