There was a very long similar campaign in Norway, for a fizzy drink with oranges. The drink is Solo, and so the funnies were called Olos.
Actually it started off as a series of commercials, but got so popular that people invented their own, there were large collections of nonsence-sentences. One of the most popular was this:
“Bewares, your dog is one worm!”
which obviously is nonsense.
However, the Norwegian original sentence was
“Bevares, hunden din er enorm!”
meaning, wow, your dog is huge.
Bevares sounds a bit like like bewares, the dog is just the dog, but enorm (huge) might be split into en + orm (one worm).

Another one is:
“House of the Rising Sun”, translated into “Huset til den reisende sønnen” (or, House of the travelling son).

And still:
Are you hero on the did? (Er du helt på jordet?)

There smoke the garden snake. (Der røyk hageslangen)

You are all too smart. It was on purpose but I felt it was definitely worth putting up here. We had a good laugh and the diner we were eating when they gave this to us. My stepbrother turned to me and suggested uploading it. GLAD YOU LIKE.

Now to see who believes me that I posted it.

By: Sakutan

Just in case you where too lazy to read previews coments…. It’s not “Engrish”, It’s a Pepsico Ad for last X-mas. It’s “We wish you a Merry Xmas” writen phoneticly for spanish speaking people. It’s a Joke.

Heh, couldn’t figure out what this was for a second… I thought it might be SWEDISH, ha, even though the most experience I’ve had with Swedish is typing “Caramelldansen lyrics” into google.

That cannot be translated to English – “tocar” has the double meaning of playing and touching, thus the double entendre on “tocarte el wiwichu”.

Phonetic approximation of English words/phrases for Spanish speakers.
…
Not quite an Engrish situation…I remember one of the Spanish languate TV stations used to have half-length infomercials in the middle of the night for a set of self-teaching materials called ‘Ingles en Espanol” which would provide words and definitions in Spanish and then tne English words with both the proper spelling and the phonetic spelling. For Example “Que Pasa?” (pronunciada en ingles) ‘Juas japenin?’= What’s Happening?

This was a lame-o promotional campaign in my lovely Mexico this past X-mas… you COULD call it Engrish… but it was done on purpose…. we do it all the tiem!!!

This is a hook to a joke. It goes like this:

(Guy, Chick on the beach at night)

G: Hey, can I play you wiwichu?
C: Play me the WHAT?
G: The wiwichu. You’ll like it…
C: But we aren’t married yet! What are you thinking of?
G: Come on, the moon’s so bright, the sea’s so calm, the stars so beautiful…
C: Ok, but just once.
G: *grabs guitar*

Actually, it’s a Pepsi campaign.
Otherwise, why would Coca-Cola have red, white and blue-wearing characters?
It doesn’t make any sense.
