A CLASSIC "GENERAL MOTORS" AD ON FACEBOOK FOR SOUTH ASIANS
StarBuzz Weekly, Toronto-General Motors should proof read their advertising copy and its translations/transliterations or adaptations. In the copy (as marked) in the attached ad is trying to say 'leave or forget the Japanese cars' whereas the transliteration into Hindi literally means 'F... the Japanese' The word should be 'Chhodo' or safer way is 'chhoro'. I hope someone in General Motors or its ad agency takes note and corrects the ad.
