Why it’s important to check your translations

IF you are a business owner here in Spain you will know the difficulty of translating menu’s and public notices from English to Spanish, it’s easy to have a minor mix up.

Here are a few rather large bloopers and there are many more out there, they’re equally as common when translated from Spanish to English, one of my favourite menu fails was spotting ‘Chicken Wigs’ instead of wings on a tapas menu in Torremolinos.

We’re all guilty of the odd typo now and then but some of these are highly amusing.
