Like the photo of a bad-English-riddled beach poster featured here last time, this photo of a public-bar signage was sent by Joselito B. sometime ago to Rocky Avila, a reader of my
Manila Times English-usage column. Recall that I mentioned that Joselito sent him this and a bunch of other bad-English photos with the following note:
“They say that the Philippines is the third largest English-speaking country in the world and there are two different kinds of English speaking Pinoys: The Good Englishizer and the Bad Englishizer. Oooooppppsss! Is that a wrong mistake? Sorry. Enjoy reading just the same. Have a good day.”
What do you think we can do with this state of affairs?
