New Delhi: Translation is an art, which if gone awry can churn out thousands of memes. That is precisely what happened in the case of this Idli/Dosa Batter’ company.
A picture of a packet of idli/dosa batter has now become a favourite of memers on social networking sites. The reason is a ‘mis-translation’ on the packet.
The translator who was translating words ‘Idli/Dosa batter’ to Hindi mistook ‘batter’ for batsman and wrote ‘Idli/ Dosa Ballebaaz’!
The goof up has changed the meaning of English word ‘batter’ to Hindi word Ballebaaz/ batsman and netizens can’t stop themselves from posting funny memes.
The post has invited thousands of funny reactions.
