Jerusalem? Never heard of it
Jerusalem? Never heard of it
Jerusalem. There is no such city!" the Jerusalem municipality said in AN English version of a sightseeing brochure.

Jerusalem: Something always gets lost in translation, but usually not an entire city.

"Jerusalem. There is no such city!" the Jerusalem municipality said in the English-language version of a sightseeing brochure it had published originally in Hebrew.

The correct translation: "Jerusalem. There is no city like it!"

Carrying a photograph of the brochure, Israel's Maariv newspaper said on Wednesday tens of thousands of flyers had been distributed before city hall realised its mistake.

What's your reaction?
