I did a project a couple years ago to redesign part of our units to meet safety standards of all the countries we deal with. China was one of those countries. I pored over about 100 pages of safety regulations (think OSHA) that was all written like that. It was agonizing. I was thankful there were some pictures to help clarify.0

I didn't exactly translate, it was in "english" sort of. Here is an excerpt:
"As for the safety cage without safety cage, the vertical distance from the rung center line to the continuous surface close to climbing surface shall not be less than 760mm. if there is non-continual obstacle, the vertical distance shall not be less than 600mm."0 -
Read a 1920s-30s GE service manual and you'll think you've died and gone to heaven. Not only are there a ton of pictures, they all have absolutely perfect English.
I've found 1950s-60s electronics service manuals to be fantastic as well.Single pipe 392sqft system with an EG-40 rated for 325sqft and it's silent and balanced at all times.

Well that's one way to learn Chinese. Imagine having to write sentences like that......however it seems they can condense an English sentence down a bit.0

Chris, so you're saying that English Majors used to be employable?........but not needed today as there would be many who could not comprehend their efforts.....Someone should inform Garrison Keillor of the Prairie Home Companion show.0
