•  ENGRISH

  A couple of blogs ago, I got caught up in Chinglish, Japlish, Manglish, Singlish, Spanglish…  It’s all Engrish to this website, though with a more Japanese bent.

  The webmaster of Engrish.com came up with the term “Engrish” to describe flawed English found in Japan and other countries. The most popular alternative word used to describe the phenomenon of Japanese English is “Japlish”. Other terms sent in to Engrish.com include: Janglish, Engelese (or Engalese), Englese, Japanglish, Jinglish and Nihonglish.

  The website has a huge gallery of Engrish stuff, and also shows you how to Make Your Own Engrish .
