Good, but not as good as what Italian tourist regions came up with in the 70ies and early 80ies. They actually managed to turn innocent words into vulgarities sometimes. Especially funny when displayed in Neon letters over a shop. As seen in Lignano where a shop owner prudly presented Arsch Artikel - I guess, the similarity to Arse is obvious.

Is there German word for odd foreign German like Engrish?

If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god. If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
