Status: offline 		I have just got a new soldering station / soldering iron. The instructions have obviously been translated from Chinese. It is good, but when I use it, I always make sure I follow the instructions:

-This weld machine is an ideal welding tool for an amateur fancier, school, car of electronics, and for maintaining service, producing with labratory.

-Outer shell construction is tightly and firmly packed, and it has good function to instulate the aegis.

-The welding machine is absolutly prohibited to be used to heat the liquid(water,electrolyte and ?) or heat the plastic parts (it will form poisonous air and cause fires).

-After welding, please melt a little solder on the welding mouth before putting the iron back to the frame and turning off the machine. Clean away excrescent solder on the fiery mouth with wet sponge before starting welding next time.

-Please conserve the weld machine's packing box. In cause that we use it for future transportation or put the weld machine into it when we don't need it ,so as to avoid pollution of ash and the eroding of the wet.
1) Put the metal helix of screw frame into the corresponding open crust of the electric soldering irons frame. And use the screw to fasten it and so does the bottom of the frame.
2) Please let the sponge for tidying up glue absorb enough clean water and drop to dry, and then put it on salver.

-The welding of electric components costs not more than two minutes.

-The electric soldering irons and the weld machine can not carry too much man's weight.

-the temperature of the electric soldering irons can reach more than 160*C, if the animal or man touch the heated by the electric soldering irons, we will suffer seriously bum.

-If you press the switch without move, regulating will go on by 10*C every grade til the demanded temperature is displayed.

-...the piezoelectricity sensor will give out sound of alarm.


Well, that's helpful! I'll try not to touch it when it is hot, or sit on it accidently! Any more funny translations?

(By the way, this a soldering iron, NOT a welding iron. However much the instructions say it can, it cannot weld.)

Status: offline 		Yes - Here's one.
I was speaking to a Chinese person who is a good friend of mine and is trying to teach me Chinese. It is common here for close friends to call each other "Brother" or "Sister" or "Uncle" etc.

When I tried to speak to her in Chinese one day I called her "Sister" (The Chinese for that is "Mei Mei" She looked most offended and replied that she was only a close friend. I eventually found out what the upset was about. I had accidentally called her "****" (The Chinese for that is "Mei Mei" and the difference in the inflection between the two words is pretty much indiscernible to Western ears) I've since learnt that there is a better word to use for "Sister".

Believe me it is even easier to mess up when translating the other way.
