Interdict looks to me like a misspelling of the French “interdit” meaning forbidden.

horse gear= bridle (tack, gear, whatever. bits, reins etc)=bridal (as in bride; white veil, roses etc)

interdict made me thing of indecent, but i googled it. it’s roman catholic term. how bout that? they like brides too. Interdict (Roman Catholic Church), an ecclesiastical penalty which (temporarily) bars a specific person or group of people from receiving the sacraments. but I’m pretty sure it’s used here as a general threat

Not at all; there are plenty of words there, it’s just that they make absolutely no sense whatsoever.

Maybe “marche de l’equipe des chevaux (horse team)? That would be an awkward way to word it in French, though…

If my bride heard you call her “horse gear” you wouldn’t be able to sit down for a week.

Brillian sir. I tip my hat to you.

Harry should have your icon.

By: jack mehoff

jack mehoff — Wed, 19 Nov 2008 16:03:42 +0000

oh, what to do first…

go after “the hardest thing to comment on” or say something like “bend over and I’ll show you the march of the horse gear.”

Or that my horse gear is the hardest thing to comment on…

Oh, the possibilities are endless…

Thank You
The Direction

This is directly related to the image titled “Top Hat: $35 Gloves: $42″ on roflrazzi. I would say the signage was probably made by Louis Vuitton.

UH! stoopid! that would be BRIDAL MARCH

They obviously used the Translator shown in the next Engrish Posting.

It is a carousel. My friend took this picture in Nice, France.

By: SteelSkin

Let’s translate word-by-word in french.

“Il est interdit de bouger durant la marche (de la / du) …”

cheval-pignon? cheval-engin? cheval-engrenage? cheval-équipement? WTF? There’s not many words that translate into “gear” in french and none of them make sense whatsoever! O_o
Might some kind of carriage (“voiture à cheval”), or like you said a carousel. I really wonder what crappy automatic translator they used for this.

By: Koji Tojo

This is obviously written by French people who can’t speak
English. “Interdict”-> (French)Interdit=Forbidden

“The Direction”->The staff (La Diréction)

The rest has me as stumped as you are.
The carousel idea would make sense though.
Probably don’t want kids to move while the
Carousel is turning. Or the horse gear is
walking. whatever floats your boat.

Doh! You beat me to it! It looks like a carousel/merry-go-round. So they are staying “Stay on your horses/dragons/birds/whatevers while in motion.”

Wait, Laureril…where the hell am I getting Laureli from? Too much Gilmore Girls. *braingun*

By: Hans

Hans — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:57:21 +0000

Oh, certainly, Laureli was on the right track first, no doubt.

Give credit where credit is due. I think that prize goes to Laureril. We can all figure out what the sign means now, but she made the crucial connection to the merry-go-round.

This was my frist first, and I get the hardest thing to comment on

By: Hans

Hans — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:53:51 +0000

It’s a knack of mine. As long as I’m not having to translate kanji, I’m pretty good at working these things out, most times…context clues for the win. If you look in the reflection in the paint behind the -fake- mirror…you can see a wide central pillar…only place I know they put wistful fake mirrors is on kid’s playground stuff…Laureli’s guess drove it home.

“Do not move while the merry-go-round is in motion. -The Management.”

By: Laureril

Laureril — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:42:40 +0000

Think I’ve got it – it’s a merry-go-round?

By: Archon

Archon — Tue, 18 Nov 2008 16:41:59 +0000

“This doesn’t go with/isn’t part of the [Horse-Gear] move. Thank you, The Management.”

…I wonder if “Horse-Gear” is specific? Maybe an equestrian event? Or an estate sale? Makes total sense if equestrian gear is being sold off/auctioned. “This is not part of the riding tack lot.”

Yeah, no kind of deductive logic is gonna help you figure that one out. Although the walk of the horse gear does sound intriguing…
