Either you are not from France or your French is a wreck. There's nothing wrong with that sign, and is plain correct French. What it pretty much says is:

For your own safety, be careful during cleaning operations of the waterbody.

Respect the environment, don't leave your trash on the beach.

Respect the current nautical regulations.

For more information, check with the beach supervisors at the aid stations.

The city of Menton is grateful and wishes you a pleasant stay.

Though I'm not from France nor am I a native French speaker.

Epic Fail.

You're missing the point. The post was what was actually printed on the sign in English as the translation of the French.

You are the epic fail.

You should see some of the T-Shirts in Japan.

Well at least in the 90's, a lot of them were crazy... one had an ice rink with cute little penguins playing hockey, with little comic balloons and writings such as "#@!$" and "What the hell?"

I laughed so hard. You gotta love literal or uneducated translations.

Don't get me started on incorrect use of Chinese/Japanese as tattoo's xD

    • My favorite file manager for Windows 11 finally gets a long-requested feature

      By Fleet Command · Posted

      No. The file manager is a lost cause. After all, its dev receives all the undeserved praise he could evre wish from Neowin, without having actually earned it. This has never lead to improvements.

    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      I know I won't ever be using it to make my game. I'd rather pay humans.
    • Epic Games says Unreal Engine 6 will help developers "build content faster" using AI models

      By thartist · Posted

      Nah. For every indie dev that needs to create code for "stuff" or textures, it's a godsend enabler to possibly tackle a project that you may not otherwise. The end result and testing will tell the truth if everything works or doesn't, or a game is just mediocre slop, but now these tools are now there and it's the developer's duty to judge the outcome, and even more so for pro studios. And you gotta remember that they will be at an early stage.
