Non-Kanji "Engrish"

Americans love Kanji, the Japanese love Engrish. Confound your friends with Japanese ENGRISH. In Japanese, the "L" and "R" are interchangeable, which makes for some interesting and wacky translations into English. Our "Engrish" designs are all authentic translations from Japan. The bad grammar and misspellings are taken directly from actual Japanese public signs, or non-trademarked custom issued t-shirt designs. Just like Americans like to wear Japanese Kanji, the Japanese love to wear English t-shirts. These odd translations are often very humors to English speakers, but are hip and make perfect sense to the Japanese.
