Breakfast makes the skin shine.
Drinking this shake will teach you to solve alimentary equations.
Be a fatty
My fatly is vigorous enough.
Sounds like the XXXX breakfast to me.
(A Qld., beer – pron = fourex)
Does shining the skin include “polishing off” the missus?
Eat Breakfast YA! (I wonder why the YA is written in Latin letters in the Chinese part, when there is a perfectly fitting character 呀 for this very purpose).
As for how the translations came about:
It’s easy to see how “healthy weight loss” became “health reduce heavy”
胖 apparently means both “fat” and “easy and comfortable”, so I guess something like “easily/comfortably adds energy” became “vigor increase fatly”.
But the last one stumps me. It literally means “young shining skin”.
@alexmagnus: Stumped? Why? To me, that seems like a perfectly normal claim for such a product.
Health reduce… heavy! Vigor increase fatly!
So this is basically a bucket of saturated fat?
Fatly is my new favorite word.
