Gender Related Error in Translation!!

Dear Friends,

After a long time I came across a good example of a blooper. Though I have been seeing many ads with small errors but have not been uploading them.

This headline relates to a girl introducing readers about the best "Paani Puri Maker" (normally they are males) and then she says its her mummy!

The same copy could have been written મળો શહેરની  શ્રેષ્ઠ  પાણીપૂરી બનાવનારને. મારી મમ્મી  ને !

Friends please send in your comments about this blooper.

Translation Blooper !

Dear Friends,

Here is an ad which has serious mistake in the sub headline.

The line written, instead of selling the product, is actually cautioning people before using it.

It is confusing and the Gujarati has been written in a way that is actually harming the brand image of the company.

This could have been avoided if a localised agency in Gujarat would have made the same advertisement.

Please send in your comments.

Mistake in the Headline!

Dear Friends,

Here is an advertisement which has a mistake in the headline, which could confuse the reader. The word marked in the ad relates to a masculine gender, while actually the target group is females. The word should read :

ગોરા. 

A very small typo can change the meaning of the headline and seriously affect response.

 

Please send in your comments.

Scheme Name and Typo Errors..

Dear Friends,

Here is an ad where there is an error in writing the name of the scheme "AMRAKUNJ" and also an error in an important word "Bungalow" The word is important since the ad is related to a real estate company.

The scheme name is written in a different manner in the heading and inside the body copy of the ad. Such typos should be avoided and the scheme names should be doubly checked before the release of the ad.

Silk Mark - Mistake in Headline

Dear Friends,

With your valuable support and encouragement, I feel very happy that my blog related to bloopers, is going to cross the 10,000 page views mark. Thank you everyone for all your support.

Continuing with my effort to track Advertising Bloopers and now Editorial Bloopers also, here is another mistake in the advertisement of Silk Mark Organisation of India. 

The headline of the ad has 3 mistakes. It should have been written as "શુદ્ધ રેશમ ખરીદવા માટે" The headline has mistake in the first and third word, while the question mark put is not required.

Thanks once again. Do send in your comments.
