      wait – are the Gangstas who are also rapers OR are they actually rapers of Ganstas??

    AHHHH – too many apostrophes!!! Gangsta Thug’s Hustla’s Raper’s in a Honda CR-V!! And a white CR-V to boot!!! LOL What’s with the WALKING RUNNING?

    Wait. Is that license plate in Hebrew??

    Wait. Is that license plate in Hebrew??

    Yes, it is (or possibly Arabic). I don’t think this qualifies as an English fail. Not only is the spelling tolerable, even by gangsta standards, but English and Hebrew (and Arabic, actually) are written backwards relative to each other: Left-to-right versus right-to-left.

    I’m just about certain no one here could produce correctly spelled words in any middle Eastern language.

    …despite the non-English background, maybe these Thug’s are just trying to show how tough they really are. They’re much more thuggish than the gangsta rappers…they’re gangsta rapers! I think they did it on purpose. :-)

    Warren, if you think that spelling is tolerable, what are you even doing on this site?

    The idea of “gangsta rapers” is pretty scary. One little letter makes a huge difference in meaning.

    The first two apostrophes could almost be overlooked if we were talking about a talent agency run by two guys named Thug and Hustla. But the third apostrophe gives the fail away!

  9. July 30th, 2008 at 14:20 | #13

    Warren, if you think that spelling is tolerable, what are you even doing on this site?

    You’re criticizing the English usage of Israelis living in Israel?

    Do you not see the cognitive dissonance here? You cannot rationally expect foreign people, living in their native lands, to have perfect spelling using an alphabet that is not the same as theirs, and doesn’t even scan the same direction.

      I’m not going to criticise their Hebrew spelling, but if they choose to write in English, they have presumably done so thinking they can spell correctly in English. Fail.

        christ, it’s arabic.

        when anyone learns english, it’s not hard to reverse the direction of writing and reading, much less add (or not add) apostrophes to the right end of the word. it’s not like they look and see jibberish.

        that said, you’re right–foreigners shouldn’t get the same flack as jackasses here without an excuse.

    Warren, this is a website. It’s for entertainment. We’re not some university’s admissions board, trying to be all fair and balanced and give everyone a chance and take into consideration their difficult circumstances and acknowledge that we couldn’t do any better in their language.

    We’re here to make fun of people.

  12. July 30th, 2008 at 15:35 | #20

    We’re here to make fun of people.

    Which you do well, for the most part. But if you’re going to call the site “English Fail”, I’d expect some reasonable standards. That was, I thought, one of the results of the recent poll — that only truly abysmal English failures from foreign language speakers would be used.

    Since I don’t expect US gangstas to spell worth a damn, expecting it from Israeli (or Arabic) gangstas is a bit of a stretch…

    “…that only truly abysmal English failures from foreign language speakers would be used.”

    I would agree that this statement should apply to this example, but in my eyes raper/rapper is a pretty abysmal.

    July 30th, 2008 at 17:26 | #23

    Warren, it was their choice to use English on the back of their CR-V. If I ever use Hebrew text on my car/body/whatever, I would get my Israeli friends to look it over. They didn’t have any English speaking friends? They will have to live with the embarassment of being immortalized on English Fail. They could have written in Hebrew.

    They made an atempt at english. The product failure.

    Simple as that.

    On top of that hebrew gangsta musical preformer, or violent sexual deviant, would be a faliure its self.

    That’s definitely not Hebrew. Also, Israelis learn English in school. That’s might not mean we’re all a bunch of Shakespeare-esque literary geniuses, but I doubt a common Israeli would make mistakes that bad.

    August 3rd, 2008 at 05:52 | #29

    The point Warren is missing is that ***we are not trying to use languages which we don’t know.*** If I try and get a tattoo in hebrew and it ends up reading as “patio” then they will be free to put me up on HebrewFail.com. It’s not an issue of can you do the same in their language, it’s a matter of did you attempt and FAIL.

    Of course we’re ranting about the use of English by Israelis living in Israel. They have their own language amongst their own native camel jocks. Why fuck up ours when their own would do just fine? There’s a Hebrew word for Rapist. (And yeah, that’s Hebrew on the license plate.)

    Hey Warren…Are you really so much of a politically correct dick bag that you’re actually getting upset at people laughing at the fact that these guys decided to write something in english on their car and spelled it wrong? Who cares? I think it’s funny too. I speak english. I don’t run around writing shit all over the place in different languages. It’s their fault. And the pussifying of America is the fault of you and those like you.

  37. Hashem
    August 3rd, 2008 at 10:48 | #48

    That’s definitely Arabic. As some have mentioned, it looks like a Saudi license plate. The letters are:

    652 HHD (the H’s are actually hard raspy ones, and the D is a soft “d”)

    Arabs here in the Middle East are renowned for thinking they are “gangstas” and dress in baggy clothes and everything. Needless to say, they are all posers.

    haha, i find it helarious all the israelis were quite offended when someone said the plate was written in hebrew. Oh no, israelis learn english in school, oh israelis who can’t speak english can’t afford a car, oh no israelis are not to be associated with arabs. laa te daaa, i know israelis who can’t speak english to save their lives and can still cover you with money! go kill yourselves losers.. i’m an arab and this hashem guy (whose name is arab) said this: “Arabs here in the Middle East are renowned for thinking they are “gangstas” and dress in baggy clothes and everything. Needless to say, they are all posers.” i lived in lebanon for 9 years buddy, not once in my life have i seen baggy jeans or FUBU shirts or any of that.. If anything, they’re all high on E !
    Back to the israelis.. haha oh god, forget about it! though i’d like to emphasize on this post: “By lev on Aug 3, 2008

    it’s no hebrew, the only people in israel that do mistakes like this cannot afford them self a car.”

    haha lev, do you own a car?? i’d be surprised if what you’re saying is true!

    hey guys…the car is from saudia arabia…in the middle east…over here, its fairly common to spell wrong cuz the people who stick, or cut out, the stickers are mainly labours with little to no education….so in other words…theyve been done by ppl who cnt spell…give em a break will ya?!!

      December 19th, 2008 at 17:42 | #74

      Dude, I’m sorry, but if you’re so into English you want it on the back of your car, you should know enough to check the spelling before you buy it.

      Either way, the owner of the car fails.

      Because, like people have been saying, if you’re gonna cover your body/car/whatnot with slogans or phrases in another language, it’s your job to check and double check the spelling. You only embarrass yourself when you don’t.

    They are just using an older spelling. “Rapper” originated when somebody accidently pressed the ‘P’ key twice.

  66. David
    January 26th, 2009 at 00:43 | #80

    I think they meant “Rapists” as opposed to “Rappers” because the word “Raper’s” [sic] is written in the same manner (same font, same sizing and the three words together create a triangle surrounding [encompassing?] Gangsta) as “Thug’s” [sic] and Hustla’s [sic].
