Living in a multi-racial country.
Most signs are in 4 different languages.
As above from top down - English, Chinese, Tamil & Malay

Hmmm.. I should have sensed this sign coming up as God knows what happened as my head felt like something knocked against it.. :P
Great idea for the week and glad that you can track me down this week too.. haha
wow, great take on the theme. i was cracking my head on what to write about and yours was simple and straight to the point :D
have a great weekend !
I like your take on this theme,Elaine! :) Mines up too! and have a fab weekend!
Ling, wow, 4 different languages. Here in the Philippines,its mostly English but in some places, there's Korean symbols under the English ones. What!? Have they taken over the country? (I have a post about this in my GreenBucks blog)There's just way too many of them here.
Oh, your neighbors. Just the other night I called in the local community patrol to go to those noisy neighbors. They did and everything was quiet until there was noise again because our dog got another stray cat. Again.
Have a great weekend :)
haha, perfect for the theme, so most signs there are multilingual.
happy hunting.
Very cool idea for the theme! Happy photo hunting!
Ah Tamil. I was wondering what the thrid lngueage was.Great idea for this week's theme. Happy weekend
That's a good take on different.Have a great weekend!
We have similar idea today. Happy PH!
I haven't seen four different languages signboard for a long while.
I decided to post early for this week.
Wah is so rare nowadays to find all the 4 language on 1 signboard. Nice take!
Good choice for the theme leh. I was having such a hard time looking for a suitable one for this week, and I have to agree with satkuru, yours is so simple and straight to the point!
excellent choice for the theme
That's different, here they are only in two. French and English. Good photo for the theme.
That is a little different from Southern California. But many signs here are in Spanish and English now...
I always see this too when I'm on a different country especially in most asian countries.
Happy Weekend Ling!
Wow, that really is different. :)
It's only recently that the authorities are putting up more signs in different languages, before that it was mostly English.
Next to tackle would be announcements in different languages. ehhe....
Good shot for the theme. Danger signs are an important one to have in different languages so everyone understands them. Hope you have a great weekend.
Greeat post for the theme. 4 different languages. wow.
happy Weekend!
This is great and as jmb mentions, Canada has 2 official languages, English and French. However, we have so many immigrants, that sometimes you see signs in Mandarin, Cantonese, Vietnamese, Punjabi, Hindi, and others.
Great contribution. I love seeing signs posted in languages everyone can understand.
perfect for the theme --we have everything in two languages here in TX in Spanish and English
I used to Live in Switzerland and we also have four languages, but one is more like a dialect.. so everything is actually written in French, GErman, and Italian.....lovely take on the theme!
That's a great entry for this week's theme. It's good to have safety signs in different languages to make sure that its meaning is set across successfully.
I understand the first one at least. :)
Wow, that's really nice! I love learning new languages and in your place, just comes in handy, I mean you do learn each also at school right? Great post for today Elaine, keep it up!
How neat to live in such a diverse area!
Very different and very interesting!!
Happy weekend!

You really posted something interesting this week. But sometimes, these translations may have different meanings and usually they make me laugh hard. Haha... (= Happy weekend (=
That´s a very cool choice!
Happy Hunting!
nice take on the theme this week!
Thanks for dropping by and giving me some additional info :)
have a great weekend! :D
Great idea for this week! Have a great weekend!! :)
Great take on the theme!
Thanks for dropping by mine!
have a great weekend!
I am well used to bilingual signs but this is DIFFERENT!
Thanks for the visit.
:), I nveer thought you'll come with this idea.
when I was 7, it was my 3rd trip to Singapore, (i was able to read) I told my dad,
"dad, mereka mengerti bahasa Indonesia"
means : dad, they can speak our language...:))
Like Aileni, I've lived most of my life with bi-lingual signs (Welsh/English, and now Irish/English) but four languages is certainly different!
that's a very clever idea! great take on the theme! :)
I think more of the world is becoming like that. Living here in the European Union, many signs and product packages are in all sorts of languages.
Happy Weekend.
EXCELLENT!!!!!
My Photo Hunt Different is shared, I hope, if you haven't already, you can drop by and pay a visit. Happy weekend.
Very different indeed!
I guess if you can't read this one then you'd be in trouble! *LOL*
Happy Hunting.
If I recall, don't they have different languages on their announcements in MRTs too?
Good take on "different"! I haven't seen one repeat this morning so far.
My take on "Different is

Now...why didn't i think of that....VERY nice take for this week theme and a very good picture too ;)
pearl - down with cough and flu..sob sob
Interesting. Where we live, many signs are posted in English and Spanish. Thanks for stopping by the comment at the creek. Have a wonderful weekend.
Love this pic! What a great take on the theme :)

This is a very good entry for the theme. So different from the rest.
Nice!
They are very different alphabets, aren't they?
Oh I really like your interpretation of our "different" theme! Great choice. (and super photo too!)

Great approach/interpretation of the theme.Have a nice weekend!
That way everyone can understand the signs. In Canada it's English and French!
happy belated sam pat day!!
i wonder why they can do this on the signs but not the mrt safety announcement???
smart entry! ;) this week's theme truly put everyone's creative and resourceful juices to the test. hee hee! enjoy what's left of the weekend.
in case you have the time...my entries are here:
Cafe Munchkin
