Used Hot Dogs, Teetotaling, Lunch Specials and Tricky Taxes – it’s Friday Funnies

February is the season of connection—when the right words matter most. Whether it’s a heartfelt message, a bold campaign launch, or a global announcement, what you say (and how you say it) can spark lasting impact. 

At Auerbach International, we carefully translate your communications to resonate worldwide. The result? Messaging your audiences will truly connect with - like Cupid's arrow.

Here are some examples of Cupid missing the mark: 

 
I don't know if this is a message from a teetotaler, a gardener or the Tokyo traffic police.
 
 
"Used"? "Delicious without attaching anything"? Like a leash? A collar? At least that dog isn't synthetically preserved.
 
 
What a bargain! You get assorted, popular men and soup for one low price.
 
 
The tax code is already confusing. Now the authorities are making it a real guessing game!
 
At Auerbach International, we believe great communication is a lot like love: it depends on nuance, understanding, and perfect timing. Across languages and cultures, our expert linguists ensure your message feels authentic, natural, and meaningful—never lost in translation.
 
Your organization deserves the best and our promise is to provide exactly that. Your message will be clear and accurate, a bullseye for your global partners and clients. Click here for a free project quote.
 
A final thought from Mark Twain: "If you tell the truth, you don't have to remember anything."

Best ~
