Maybe they just use freetranslation.com to translate instead of hiring a professional translator to translate for them. I guess the factories are cheap.

My mom doesn't understand why I don't buy clothes in Taiwan. Mostly it is because every single shirt/pants/shoes/purse/whatever is either fake or has weird English writing on it. It is very hard to find something normal!

Yet, they do make US clothes. Maybe when someone tells them that the whatever is wrong, they change it and send the good ones to the US. Being the cheap people they are and to find a clever way to not lose so much money, they probably send the wrong ones to the little thrift stores, in an attempt to sell them.
