Every now and then we see things that are so ridiculous that we find it hard to believe they are real! Well, in most of the cases they are as real as they can get, which makes them even funnier! Since we live for the fun things in life, it is worth sharing such things and social media is the place to do it.
The list below consists of many examples of translation fails gathered from all over the world. Some of them look like a bad joke, but each and every one of them is real!
1. Here is a nice warning sign for starters
We believe that nobody tried to eat that carpet, not even once, so that sign needs to be replaced.

Of course, this is not the correct translation but it is still a valid one.

We reckon that perfumes bought from this place would not be sensational at all!

The question here is why you should take a shower with a vacuum cleaner running next to you?

Either the image of a horse or the word ‘flamingo’ needs to be replaced here.
22. We tried to find the meaning behind this but we failed
There are so many ways to interpret this sign that we just decided to stop trying.
