Hi guys, i suppose we are asked to find some grammatical error signboard or sentences and post it for discussion right? So, there you go:
What they meant was 'in order to keep the Great Wall in good condition, please don't spit on it."
What they meant was 'in order to keep the Great Wall in good condition, please don't spit on it."
Both of these signs actually refers to keeping your volume down. Maybe the second one with the picture carries the message across better than "no louding"!
Last but not least, do click on the link to watch a video from youtube. This video shows some signs which contains either spelling error or structure problem.

I would conclude tht most of these errors occur in countries whose native language isn't English. Most transaltion are made literally from Chinese to English. Hence, they consist grammar error.
