Four wives mall

signs in engrish

The other day I promised you a nice sign - here you go.
I loved it.

I just saw that this also falls into the Engrish category.
I don’t know if you can read the small print about the big “4 wives” writing.
But there they typed it “wifes” instead. :>>

—————–

Letztens habe ich Euch ein klasse Schild versprochen.
Hier isses.
Mir hat’s gut gefallen.

Habe grade gesehen, dass dies auch in die “engrish” Kategorie faellt.
Ich weiss nicht, ob Ihr’s erkennen koennt, wenn ihr auf das Bild klickt und es in groesser anguckt, aber ueber dem grossen Print haben sie doch noch einen Fehler eingebaut :>>

Does nobody think that to name a mall "4 wives mall" is a tad hilarious?
Even for a place like Egypt?
:roll:

Findet denn keiner, dass "4 Ehefrauen Einkaufscenter" ein seltsamer Name ist, selbst fuer ein Land wie Aegypten? 8|

What do they actually sell ?
I guess it is just a simple grocery shop . is not it ?
Here in Doha tiny grocery's call themselves Grand Hyatt and so on :)

I actually have no idea, what they sell.
I usually only walk by, spot the signs and move on, before one of those "No hassle, just look, no cost for just looking" guys can stop me :.

Are only four "wifes" allowed in at a time? Where do the single women shop? ;)

I love these fractured English posts.
