Chinglish

A word used to describe hilariously broken English sentences and/or grammar that was intended to be an accurate depiction of the forementioned sentence, not specifically meant to describe only Chinese-English broken translations. but also other languages that misconstrue the meaning, vocabulary, and/or grammar of the sentence, and can be observed rarely, but also seen in other homogenous, large societies where English isn't used commonly other than just China.

On a Bullet Train in Tōkyō, Japan and saw some Chinglish on an advertisement featuring English text.
