Yeah - I've owned a couple of silvia's and 180's in my murky car past, and some of the Yashio silvia's were "pin-up" cars for me... except for the pink.
Ahhh, to be young and foolish and in posession of a silvia again.

No, engrish to me is when a person who knows english well cocks up and says random shit.
Japlish is when the Japanese use english but get it all munted.

No engrish encompasses any person speaking poor english, but Japlish is a special thing only done by the Japanese, only they can do it so well.

Hi,
I got an old Yamaha Cassette deck and it has the electrical schematics in the book. I had a bit of a laugh when I noticed the "flip-flops" were called "frip-frops".

Hi,
Yeah, me again. I'm on fire tonight!
Years ago when working on Fujitso mainframes we'd sometimes get the following messages.
"Two more node. Dual CPU nothing" and "Data is not exist" and the best was "Exit Disk Array Data non-informed".
And their advertising blurb was "Dual diadic, loosely coupled, back-to-back processors" ??????????????

It's because there's no L in Japanese. L sounds like R to them. It's like how tsunami and sunami sound the same to us. Hardly anyone pronnounces the T at the beginning.

Hi,
I guess that's why I don't hear too many Lobert, Lodney, Leginald, or Blian names for Chinese people.
"Welease Bwian.. he's a wobber and a wapist!" ... remember that movie?
