My youngest daughter, who relatively recently lived in south central China for 6 months (teaching Engilsh there in a High School), jokingly called it Chinglish. She said it was to be found everywhere and on just about everything in China, and it was hillarious.

The Chinese language by itself is often quite hillarious as well. For example a Van in China is called (in direct transliteration into English) a "Loaf Of Bread Vehicle".

But then we "ride on planes" and that throws them off a bit. Properly we should ride in planes, not on them. I'm sure they laugh at the English language as well.
