Hehe, reminds me of a commentary on this regarding slogans many years ago ('80s maybe?)... :D

The Chevy Nova didn't sell well in Spain. "No va" basically means "doesn't go" in Spanish.

The Pepsi slogan, "Come alive, the Pepsi generation!" didn't go over very well in some Asian cultures - it translated as, "Pepsi brings your ancestors back from the dead."

Hilarious stuff. :drunk2:
