Not Chinese but Signese

Signese.com is a photoblog that looks at Chinese characters in daily life. A couple of my photos from Taiwan have appeared on there recently. The photos show Chinese characters as they appear on signs and in public places. The photos come from a variety of people and places. Most are from China, but there are also some from Hong Kong and Taiwan.

The Signese website is the brainchild of Roddy, a Scottish expat in Beijing. It is part of his stable of websites, which also includes the Chinese Language & Culture Forums and News in Chinese. Both are excellent resources for anyone learning Chinese.

I have also been snapping away at Chinese characters here in Thailand. I posted a few photos on my other blog.
