Some people say global English is no longer just controlled by British or American English,but is
running free and developing uniquely local forms.Can you figure out the following terms?
“I like your smile,but unlike you put your shoes on my face.”This is a way of saying“Keep off the
grass.”Or“people mountain,people sea”,which means“very crowded”.
These examples are what we call Chinglish.When it comes to Chinglish,if all you know is“good good
study,day day up”,you will be considered“out man”.
Nowadays,more Chinglish words have been created,for example,a Chinese idiom is translated
as“smilence”,a combination by the English word smile and silence.
Chinglish usually offers a humorous look at misuses of the English language in Chinese street

Swire has been living in Beijing for a couple of years.“I think many Chinese people complain about the
Chinglish and badly translated English.But you know,sometimes for us foreigners,it’s actually quite
charming to see them.I think if the translations of English in China were all perfect,then something would
be lost from Chinese culture.”
However,Chinglish will probably become a“cultural relic”in the near future.Beijing has made a
comprehensive plan to improve foreign language services and correct Chinglish within five years.“It is very
ridiculous to see Chinglish on the signs in some scenic spots.And they are a kind of barrier for
communication between Chinese and people from other countries,”a Beijinger said.
Some Chinese university experts side with Chinglish.They argue that English has absorbed elements
from other languages such as French and Spanish in its growth,and now it’s Chinese’s turn.
1. What can we call Chinglish?
A. English words which get new Chinese meanings.
B. The Chinese words which are difficult to translate.
C. The words combining English vocabulary and Chinese grammar.
D. The local words preventing foreigners from learning Chinese well.
2. What does “smilence” most probably mean?
A. Saying nothing but to smile. B. Smiling without being noticed.
C. Laughing at somebody. D. Knowing little about speech.
3. What is Swire’s attitude to Chinglish?
A. It can show the humour of Chinese. B. It will attract more foreign tourists.
C. It helps him to learn Chinese well. D. It seems part of Chinese culture.
4. Why Chinglish is likely to become a “cultural relic” in Beijing?
A. Because it has become a unique bridge between Chinese and English.
B. Because Chinglish is a chance to enrich Chinese and English.
C. Because it improves the understanding between Chinese and foreigners.
D. Because Beijing is determined to get rid of Chinglish signs.
