engrish

Mispronounced or mis-translated English words which are included in Japanese songs, signs etc. They sound so funny ;)

In Engrish: "Siwent naight, howly naight, shehpar krake ah da side"

In English: "Silent night, holy night, shepherds quake at the sight"


And Miyavi's song words:

engrish

Inside joke by bilingual speakers of English and Japanese.
Intentionally bad parodies of English exploited for comic effect for an intended audience of bilingual Japanese / English speakers.

Examples:

The comedy skit "Tokyo Breakfast", a train wreck between Engrish and Ebonics which lampoons American and Japanese pop culture.

"Taksetawah", a Japanese-sounding name which is actually a tongue-in-cheek criticism -- in Engrish -- of the extravagant expense of the Tokyo Metropolitan building: "Tax Tower".

engrish

Engrish began as a racially discriminating term against asians who biologically have trouble pronunciating the "L" sound. Often times it comes out sounding like an "R". Thus engLish becomes engRish. However, it now has become more of a joke whenever there are bad translations on signs or video games...
