Oh, this is definitely true. When my wife and I went on our honeymoon to Disney World in 2005, we went to the Japanese department store in EPCOT. I recall a set of cards and stickers they had from a company where everything was in Engrish, but it was all very nuanced and obviously intentional. We bought one car sticker that had a bee flying on it and simply said "Welcome to Bee Land! If you lost, we show you right road!" There was also a "Baby Onboard" sticker that actually said "Baby In This Car". We never put the sticker it on anything, but yeah, it was obvious it was an Engrish setup. Everything in that shop is supposedly imported, so I don't think Disney had anything to do with exploitation of the language. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
