danz 0 Posted June 24, 2002 Share Posted June 24, 2002 with those silly verses on the tire covers of 4x4 here... "whether it is for fashion or personal. Sport is for fun. That is Important." or "The sound of the tire clinging to the pavement reminds us how beautiful nature is..." surely i am misquoting some of the beautiful tire-cover poetry...i should write them down...this is a purely japanese phenomenom, right?? danz Link to post Share on other sites

mogski 0 Posted June 25, 2002 Share Posted June 25, 2002 I work at a place that makes cars and the tyre covers for them too. I fixed the English on some disgusting flowery samples and made them more happening 4x4 associated kick butt type verse(actually I told the people to scrap the verse and stick to a(some) impacting words.) When I followed up on how things went I was told they went with the original flowery verse idea because my proposals were hard for Japanese to understand. So there you have the reason first hand for the bulls#@t verses you see on the tyre cover. Link to post Share on other sites
