Chinglish is the wonderful meeting of English and Chinese languages. Just as us foreigners massacre the Mandarin language when we give it a go, Chinese often translate English with results that are not quite grammatically correct. Here, a vending machine in metro station scrolling "Take Away Me" encourages passers-by to pick it up and run away with it! The 'real' meaning is easy enough to get though. I have a feeling there will be more Chinglish to come on this blog as we get around the city.
