Translating isn’t an easy skill to acquire. Learning a different language and translating it word-for-word isn't an easy task but can be quite essential. For instance, signs and boards in countries where English isn’t the primary language need literal English translations to help the non-native people. However, these translations don’t always turn out the way they were intended and lead to some unwittingly hilarious results. Here are some examples of translations gone wrong that will make you giggle.
