Lost in Translation is 140 wacky, weird and wonderful snapshots of the English language being abused abroad and at home.

From hilarious street signs to dreadful translations to an assortment of wonderful unintentional wordplay, this book will make you laugh out loud ...and remind you to always use spellcheck!
