Lost in translation…

This 4* hotel minibar leaflet is the perfect example of why one should never skimp on translators for things, as the impression left on customers will be a lasting one. It looks terribly unprofessional and leaves visitors wondering where else you may have tried to cut corners, rather than do things properly.

This will only really be amusing to the French-speaking readers, sorry to the French-impaired ones…

Mini bar translation

Talking about bad translations… Why not go visit good ol’ Engrish? Hours of easy entertainment!
